Mexico City officials installed 30 video screens along Paseo de la Reforma on Tuesday to broadcast the Mexico vs Ecuador World Cup match [1].
The initiative aims to provide a centralized public space for thousands of fans to gather and support the national team. By transforming one of the city's most iconic thoroughfares into an open-air cinema, the city manages crowd density and provides a secure environment for spectators.
The deployment of these screens ensures that citizens without access to private broadcasts can participate in the event. This large-scale installation reflects the cultural significance of the tournament, and the high demand for public viewing options during critical matches.
City planners coordinated the placement of the 30 screens [1] to maximize visibility and pedestrian flow along the boulevard. The setup allows the public to view the game in real-time while maintaining access to the surrounding urban infrastructure.
Local authorities are managing the areas around the screens to ensure safety and order as the crowd grows. The event marks a significant moment of national unity as the city prepares for the high-stakes competition between Mexico and Ecuador.
