The Best Sports Bar in Tulum
When people search for the best place to watch sports in Tulum, the best sports bar in Tulum, or a beachfront hotel in Tulum with live sports, they are usually looking for more than just a television on the wall.
They want energy. They want a crowd. They want cold drinks, good food, ocean views, and a place where every game feels like an event. There’s even a rooftop mini golf just to the side of the sports bar, perfect for families and kids to practice their shots during the game!
At La Zebra, our rooftop sports bar has become one of the favorite places in town to watch everything from the Super Bowl and World Series to golf tournaments, UFC fights, Stanley Cup games, soccer matches, and international sporting events.
Whether you are staying at one of the best hotels in Tulum or simply looking for where to watch sports in Tulum, La Zebra has become the place where travelers, locals, and sports fans come together.
The Super Bowl Event Everyone Was Talking About
This year’s Super Bowl weekend at La Zebra was one of the biggest sports events we have ever hosted.
What started as a game-day watch party turned into a four-day NFL celebration filled with beachfront energy, pool parties, themed cocktails, football-inspired games, and fans from all over the world. Guests arrived wearing jerseys, representing their teams, and quickly turned strangers into friends over beers, touchdowns, and shared heartbreaks.
The weekend included welcome parties, NFL-inspired activities, cocktail competitions, giant screens across the property, beachside recovery experiences, and a rooftop Super Bowl watch party that brought everyone together for the big game. The event sold out and filled the hotel to capacity, proving that La Zebra has become one of the top places to watch the Super Bowl in Tulum.
One of the things guests loved most was how the entire property became part of the experience. Some watched from the rooftop sports bar with a beer bucket in hand. Others moved between the pool, beachfront lounges, and restaurant while keeping their eyes on the game. It felt less like a typical sports bar and more like a football festival by the sea.
NFL Legends, Beach Football, and Super Bowl Weekends in Tulum
La Zebra has already hosted several NFL personalities over the years, but one of the biggest moments yet was this year’s Super Bowl weekend with Terrell Owens.
Throughout the weekend, guests had the chance to meet Owens, hear stories from his career, take part in Q&A sessions, and watch the game alongside one of football’s biggest personalities.
What made the weekend special was how relaxed and personal it felt. There were football games on the beach, poolside gatherings, sunset cocktails, and fans from all over the world connecting through a shared love of the game.
One of the standout moments from the weekend was a live custom painting created by local artist Enrique Diaz alongside Owens. The piece brought together football culture and local Tulum creativity in a way that felt completely unique to La Zebra.
When game day finally arrived, the entire property came alive. Families, groups of friends, and solo travelers all came together to cheer, celebrate, and experience the Super Bowl in a way that felt far more memorable than watching from a couch at home.
Last Year’s World Series Brought Baseball Fans Together
Baseball fans showed up in full force for last year’s World Series.
Night after night, our rooftop sports bar became a gathering place for both Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers fans who came together to watch the games on our giant HD screens.
Some guests arrived already knowing each other. Others came in solo and left with new friends, dinner plans, and people to cheer alongside for the next game.
There is something special about being away from home and still finding your people over a shared love of sports.
That sense of community is one of the reasons our sports bar has become so popular. It is not just about the game itself. It is about the conversations between innings, the cheers after a big play, the friendly rivalries, and the way sports can instantly connect people from all over the world.
The Stanley Cup Playoffs Bring Out Hockey Fans Too
It is not only football, baseball, golf, and soccer fans filling the bar.
During last year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs, the rooftop was packed with hockey fans watching every period, overtime finish, and game-winning goal on the big screens.
Canadian travelers, local fans, and visiting guests all gathered together with drinks in hand, creating the same electric atmosphere that makes every major sporting event at La Zebra feel like a community experience.
From the NHL playoffs to the World Series, the Super Bowl, The Masters, and soon the World Cup, La Zebra has become one of the best places to watch sports in Tulum.
Where to Watch Golf in Tulum
Golf season is another exciting time at La Zebra.
With The Masters just around the corner, our sports bar is the perfect place to spend the afternoon following every round, dramatic finish, and leaderboard change while enjoying rooftop cocktails, fresh seafood, burgers, tacos, and ocean views.
For guests who want to take their golf getaway even further, La Zebra is also offering a special package tied to the upcoming Korn Ferry Tulum Championship at PGA Riviera Maya.
Running from April 15–20, the package includes tournament tickets, private transportation, concierge support, resort credit, and a special Green Jacket welcome cocktail inspired by golf’s most iconic tradition.
It is designed for guests who want the perfect mix of championship golf, beachfront relaxation, and luxury hospitality.
Guests can spend the day at the tournament, then head back to La Zebra to continue watching the action at the sports bar with other fans, a cold drink, and a sunset view over the Caribbean.
World Cup Fever Is Coming to Tulum
The next big event on the horizon is the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
With Mexico hosting matches in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey, excitement is already building across the country.
At La Zebra, we will be showing the matches on the big screens and creating an atmosphere where guests can gather to support their teams, celebrate wins, and experience the energy of the tournament together.
Expect packed crowds, jerseys from every country, themed food and drink specials, and the kind of atmosphere that turns every match into a memorable experience.
Whether you support Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, England, the United States, or another team entirely, there is no better place to watch the World Cup in Tulum.
More Than Just a Sports Bar in Tulum
Our rooftop sports bar is not only for major championships.
Throughout the year, guests come to watch NFL Sundays, playoff basketball, UFC fights, soccer matches, Formula 1 races, tennis tournaments, golf majors, and more.
The setting is what makes it different. You are not sitting in a dark sports bar with no windows. You are watching the game with the Caribbean breeze, sunset views, handcrafted cocktails, and the beach just steps away.
That is what makes La Zebra one of the best hotels in Tulum for sports fans. It is where sports, travel, food, and community all come together in one unforgettable place.
