SCROLL DOWN TO SEE ALL THE MAJOR SPORTS APPOINTMENTS SCHEDULED FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS
Highlander Pub is one of the few pubs in Rome that is fully dedicated to sports. We show any imaginable sports event that is on your mind but we definitely put an accent on football! The English Premier League is fully featured together with the most important games from the Italian Serie A, The Spanish Primera Division, The German Bundesliga as well as the matches from The Champions League and The Europa League, American Football (NFL and College Football), hockey (NHL), Formula 1 and AFL (upon request) are also part of our sports schedule! We have 4 rooms entirely equipped with HD screens and you can come and support your favourite team with commentary in the original language! The fans of soccer can also enjoy the games from other European and South American Championships but those usually come upon request! Rugby, basketball (NCAA College and NBA as well as Euroleague), tennis (The Grand Slam Tournaments), and golf ( The Masters and Ryder's Cup).
Below is the schedule of all the football appointments for the next few days!

For any match or game that you don't see listed below or in the other voices of the submenu, you can email or call us.
