Watch World Cup Live Perth

Watch World Cup live! In Western Australia, no less. Perth is the best place to see all the action (we're not sure if they have TV in some of those red, dingo-filled parts in the North so best to stick to the WA capital).

Soccer Ball with Soccer Players on topThe smashing thing about watching the World Cup live in Perth is the slightly more reasonable time difference. It may be the most isolated capital city in the world but the ol' time difference is only seven hours.

Which means you're sorted when it comes to sending abusive texts to your mates back in Europe. "Just been watching the World Cup live in a pub in Perth, pity about the penalties ... John Terry can't kick snow off a rope!" You know, that sort of thing.

You can laugh mockingly at those schmucks on the east coast who have to try to dodge work to get down to the pub to watch the games too. None of that lark for you, you're perfectly positioned to take advantage of all the great pubs which will let you watch World Cup live action while sinking what Aussies affectionately call ‘piss'. You won't feel like an alcoholic either ... because it's socially acceptable to drink in Perth after midday. Bless!

But where to? Northbridge is pretty rocking on the weekend and in our not-so-infinite and partly-gathered-from-stereotypes opinion this is where you should go to watch the World Cup live in Perth from June 11 to July 11.

Oh and don't forget Freemantle (Freo)! It's very close to Perth and it's ‘mad banging' too ...well, according to an ol' friend of ours, who does his best to keep up with the street lingo. Check out Fishing Boat Harbour. There will be so much going on around the World Cup it will pop your little noggins. Promise.
