Xtreme Energy Drink to set up 10 free fan zones for NPL
KATHMANDU: Xtreme Energy Drink will set up 10 public fan zones across nine cities to screen live matches from the third edition of the Nepal Premier League (NPL).
The tournament is scheduled to run from October 26 to November 21, with matches to be broadcast on large LED screens at designated venues nationwide. Entry to all 10 fan zones will be free, the company said.
Three fan zones will be located in the Kathmandu Valley: Sifal Ground, Micro Park in Kirtipur and the open area opposite Gate No. 2 of the Tribhuvan University Cricket Ground. Outside the Valley, fan zones will be established at the Covered Hall area in Dhangadhi, Ghantaghar Dabali in Surkhet, Siddheshwari Ground in Butwal, Malepatan Ground in Pokhara, the Degree College premises of Birendra Multiple Campus in Chitwan, Bahrabigha Ground in Janakpur and Old Gudri Ground in Biratnagar.
Xtreme Energy said it will organise live musical performances, interactive sports competitions and promotional giveaways at each venue to create community entertainment hubs throughout the tournament.
According to company representatives, the initiative is aimed at extending the NPL experience beyond the Kirtipur stadium and enabling fans who are unable to purchase match tickets or travel to Kathmandu to enjoy the tournament atmosphere in their home towns.
