Kathmandu. The thrill of cricket is not confined to the field. The hooting that resonates in every four-six, the joy of celebrating the victory of the favorite team and the excitement of watching the game with friends is unique in itself.
In the third edition of Nepal Premier League (NPL), the same atmosphere is now seen in different cities of the country. Xtreme Energy Drink has decided to operate fan zones in 10 locations across the country with the aim of making cricket lovers experience the thrill of NPL in their own city.
NPL matches to be held from October 9th to November 5th will be broadcasted live through large LED screens placed in these fan zones. Entry to the Fan Zone will be completely free. It will give cricket lovers an opportunity to sit with their friends and enjoy the game, cheer for their favorite team and share the excitement of the tournament collectively.
Xtreme has arranged fan zones at 10 locations in 9 cities across the country. Cricket lovers will be able to watch the game on a big screen at Siphal Maidan in Kathmandu, Micro Park in Kirtipur and the ground in front of gate number two of Tribhuvan University (TU) Cricket Ground.
Preparations have been made to spread the excitement of NPL outside the valley as well. The fan zone will be operated from the covered hall area at Dhangadhi in the far west to Ganthghar Dubli at Surkhet in Karnali.
Similarly, cricket lovers will be able to gather at the same place and watch the live broadcast of NPL at the Siddheshwari Ground in Butwal, Malepatan Chowr in Pokhara and the degree college premises of Virendra Munysham Campus in Chitwan. There will also be fan zones at Bahrabigha Chowr in Janakpur of Madhesh and Old Gudri Maidan in Biratnagar of Eastern Nepal.
Extreme is preparing to make the fan zone a center of entertainment and collective celebration, not just a place to watch the game. Along with the live broadcast of cricket, musical performances and various entertainment activities will also be organized here. Spectators will have the opportunity to participate in fun sports activities and will also be able to receive attractive gifts through the giveaway program.
Xtreme has launched this initiative with the aim of bringing the growing enthusiasm for the NPL beyond the boundaries of the cricket ground and connecting the fans from different cities of the country in one atmosphere. Even cricket lovers who cannot reach the stadium to watch the match can gather in front of the big screen in their own city and experience the thrill of the tournament.
While the competition between the players is going on in the field, it is expected that the hooting, enthusiasm and collective happiness of the supporters in the fan zone will add to the excitement of the NPL. In this way, the Extreme Fan Zone, which combines cricket, music and entertainment, is expected to become an attractive gathering place for cricket lovers throughout the tournament.
