Union County Set to Host Free, Outdoor Watch Party for July 19 Cup Final

The Union County Board of County Commissioners is pleased to announce the official Union County 2026 Soccer Final Watch Party, a free event which will be held at Oak Ridge Park in Clark, from 2:00-6:00pm on Tuesday, July 19.

"In every corner of Union County, we've seen how neighbors have united in celebration of a truly global sport," said Union County Commissioner Chairman Joseph C. Bodek. "Now, it all comes down to this: a historic final match for the ages, hosted right here in New Jersey. I invite every resident to come celebrate and support their favorite team."

Hosted by the Union County Board of Commissioners and Department of Parks and Recreation, the event will feature a full viewing area, beer garden with beverages available to purchase by attendees ages 21 and over with valid ID, food trucks, and plenty of entertainment for the whole family-such as kids' games and inflatables.

The teams competing in the final Cup match are yet to be determined, but a 3:00pm kickoff time has already been scheduled.

Residents are asked to bring their own lawn chairs and blankets.
