Watch party at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa for Game 5 of the 2026 American League Championship Series featuring the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Tampa Bay Rays are playing Game 5 of the American League Championship Series on Sunday, October 18, and if you aren't heading to the stadium, there's a watch party at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa to catch it with a crowd. It's a collective retransmission of the game, so you'll be watching it on the big screens rather than on your own couch.
Game 5 is a big one—it's the deciding match of the series, and since the Rays are the ones playing, this is the local game that'll have everyone in town tuned in. Watching it at a venue like the Hard Rock means you're surrounded by other fans instead of just your living room, which is usually the way these things go when the stakes are this high. It's a good spot to be if you'd rather be out and about than stuck at home.
Doors open at 4 PM, and the game starts at 5 PM, so you've got an hour to get in and settled before the first pitch. If you're planning to go, it's worth getting there early enough to grab a spot and get your bearings before the action kicks off. The venue is located at 162 Landing in Tampa.
