Soccer-watching fun will be continuing in the Lehigh Valley.

ArtsQuest announced today that its FIFA World Cup SoccerFest and Viewing Party, originally scheduled to wrap up Sunday, will continue through July 13.

Turnout has been "tremendous," ArtsQuest said, at the World Cup-watching festival, including an estimated 8,000 people who came to ArtsQuest's SteelStacks complex in Bethlehem on Monday to watch the U.S.-Ghana game.

"One of the original goals in developing SteelStacks was to create a destination that would bring the community together for unique celebrations and experiences," ArtsQuest Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations Curt Mosel says in a statement. "From soccer coaches and players, to the many fans who came out to cheer on their favorite team, this event drew many people to SteelStacks for the first time, introducing them to the great cultural programming available here in Bethlehem and the Lehigh Valley."

This week, six additional World Cup matches will be shown on a giant outdoor LED screen, including Brazil vs. Mexico at 3 p.m. today and Spain vs. Chile at 3 p.m. Wednesday.

After Sunday, the SteelStacks campus will continue to show all the World Cup matches on the Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks' outdoor screen, including Italy vs. Uruguay at noon June 24, Ecuador vs. France at 4 p.m. June 25 and U.S. vs. Germany at noon June 26.

The SteelStacks campus also will show all knockout round matches through the finals at 3 p.m. July 13. The only matches that will not be shown on the Levitt screen are the June 23 matches due to the Yuengling Summer Concert Series' Tegan and Sara show that evening at 7:30 p.m.

In addition to the Levitt Pavilion screen, the World Cup games will also be shown on the PBS Public Media & Education Center's outdoor screen, as well as the television screens inside the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks. Food and beverages will be sold before, during and after all of the games at the ArtsQuest Center.
