I'm not sure I'd dig watching in a pub/club but I've always fancied seeing it in a cinema. The Prince Charles in London would be perfect for it. Anyone know of any showing it?

In Liverpool as Benny said, Shooters at Bierkeller has it on and I'd suspect Camp and Furnace as well although I've seen nothing official. Potentially Maguires Pizza Bar too on Renshaw Street.

Riley's next to the Adephi is showing it, too. Fiver per ticket but you get that back as a bar tab after entry. Usually a better venue than the Bierkeller, although in both I've put up with blokes trying to get chants going after their third pint.

If the Walkabout near Temple tube station in London is showing it I could feasibly leave after 'Mania finishes, have a four hour kip on the Strand with the Big Issue fellas and get to work in time for 9:30.

 

I'll probably do the sofa/takeaway/TV at home scenario and book Monday off though.

I hate watching PPVs in a pub or similar venue because it's full of wrestling fans. My plan this year is to watch it on the Monday morning with my son as the schools are off. That way I can watch and enjoy it properly with someone who hasn't been jaded by years of watching.

I love watching WWE with my kids for this very reason. We popped so much for Sami Zayn coming out on Raw to brawl with KO. A genuine memory that'll live with me for years to come. If I'd been with my mates, I'd have pooped all over it saying that they're gonna treat him just like Breeze, Neville, Bo, Rose, Ascension.

 

 

And, how come your boy is off school on April 4th? Mine aren't  :-(

In this utterly poxy shithouse called Ireland, they’d have to cut it short at 3am because of licensing laws.

Fucking terrible place to live if you want to do anything past 3am.

Scotland is pretty much the same but most place just apply to extend the license for an hour if something is on. Can't they do that in Ireland?

I don't think so. I mean, any time we're out, it's 3am, then "ARE YA RIGHT THERE FOLKS...PLEASE!", rinse and repeat for 10 minutes and then fucked into the cold to get a taxi home.

Believe me I have fucking searched Dublin City for somewhere to get a drink after 3am and the only places are backstreet casinos/brothels and they're not fun because you're expected to spend money on drink AND gambling, be it by means of roulette, poker or gonorrhoea.

Used to be a place years ago called Spirit that stayed open til 6am and times were good then.

On topic, I really would watch Mania in a pub/club environment if I had the chance...

In England, unless places have a 4am Monday morning licence anyway (rare), it's not just a case of places being allowed to just stay open to show it - they often have to be closed-doors ticketed events (for which different licencing principles apply), not something where Joe Public can just wander for a late drink off the street.

 

Where the WM parties are being run in conjunction with a live local wrestling show (as is the case in at least Preston, York, Cardiff... and Glasgow) and in Coventry in the past, your ticket to the wrestling show acts as entry to the viewing.

Glasgow schools always have the first two full weeks in April off. I always have one of them off work as well so I made sure I timed it well this year.
