On matchday
Not every European night can be spent abroad. Here's how to make a proper Sunderland night of it — where to watch, what's on the telly, what to eat and what to wear.
Regular viewing venues
Looking for somewhere to watch the lads? We've brought together Sunderland viewing venues across the North East, so you can find somewhere to watch with fellow Mackems.
Arrangements, opening times and ticket requirements can vary by match. Not every venue shows every fixture, and not every screening needs a ticket.
