The Swedish organisers of the 28th IHF Men’s World Championship 2023 and O’Learys have teamed up to make O’Learys Sports Bars the official fan zone for the championship.
O’Learys have around 115 restaurants worldwide. They offer a complete experience, combining sport and food in a fabulous atmosphere and offering activities such as bowling, shuffleboard, darts, etc. The concept is aimed at a broad spectrum of guests, both private individuals and business people.
O’Learys Tolv, located adjacent to the Tele2 Arena, was the official fan zone during the most recent European Championship in Sweden back in 2020. The partnership then was a success and was highly appreciated by the guests.
– O’Learys Tolv was part of the European Men’s Championship in 2020, and together we lifted the whole experience of that weekend of the Final in Stockholm. Now we are expanding the partnership and spreading the handball around the country, and together with O’Learys we will be offering all fans an arena locally, too. We know that they always deliver a master class and that they have strong connections with Swedish sport. We are delighted with the partnership, says Krister Bergström, CEO at Handbolls-VM 2023 Sverige AB.
– Handball is very much a people’s sport in Sweden, and by spreading the tournament around we will be able to take the World Championship out to everyone in Sweden, which feels fantastic. Along with our guests, we will create a fabulous experience at all O’Learys. It will also be a unique year for handball, with two World Championships on home soil, which feels particularly exciting, says Caroline Linton, Head of Marketing, O’Learys Trademark.
The IHF Men’s World Championship 2023 will be held from 12–29 January in Sweden.
