Cricket in Sri Lanka is no longer just a sport. As the former Sri Lankan Cricket Captain legend said, “it is a shared passion that is a source of fun and a force for unity. It is a treasured sport that occupies a celebrated place in our society. We are today, and always, proudly Sri Lankan”. This resplendent island still beams with pride, thinking back to 1996, when Sri Lanka rose like the proverbialPhoenix from the ashes, emerging winners of the 1996 ICC World Cup.
The spirit of 1996 still powers the mighty Sri Lankans and themuch-awaited Cricket World Cup is back. It’s time to get together with your family, friends and colleagues and cheer on the Sri Lankan team. What better place to do this than at the Mövenpick Hotel Colombo?
Head up to Vistas, the stunning rooftop bar that has been stealing the limelight in the city. Twenty-four storeys high, catch the games live on giant screens with amazing meal deals and happy hours. Together with a special menu designed just for the World Cup featuring common favourites like the Slinga’ Malinga Prawn wadeys, Faf’s falafels and Kohli enchiladas. Boasting spectacular 360 views of Colombo, enjoy panoramic sunsets and breathtaking ocean sights from its impressive location, a venue offering the kind of scenes that would be the envy of restaurants across the island.
Not a fan of rooftop bars and loud cheering? That’s not a problem. Head down to the Whiskey and Cigar Saloon with a minimum of ten people and the entire room is yours.
If you feel like throwing your own private party with a minimum of 30 colleagues, your own personal “Game Room” awaits you with Eiger. From comfy bean bags to table tennis and foosball, book the entire space for just 30,000 with some popcorn on the house.
