Where to watch the State of Origin

All three Origin games are going to be shown live on the big screen at Vic on the Park in Marrickville, with discounted jugs of Furphy to boot.

The Courty loves a game of footy, and when there’s a bite in the air that makes sitting in the garden a little too chilly for comfort, there’s no better way to spend an afternoon than posting up on one of the bar stools and watching the footy over a $16 VB jug (from 5pm to 7pm before every game) and a Courty burger.

The big-gun of pub sport-watching, York 75 is your CBD answer to an Origin night done right. Full of leather booths and sports memorabilia, as well as a hefty twenty big screens – (two of which are 3D) you can enter into a night of footy festivities with full confidence that not one blues moment will be missed. 

Catch all three games on the mega screen in their beer garden, with this fairy-light filled venue bringing it home with their $30 Footy Feast of fiery buffalo wings with blue cheese sauce, salt and pepper squid, mushroom and thyme arancini, beef sliders and shoe string fries. Plus, you can snag yourself jugs of VB for $15 a pop. 

The Greengate Hotel is celebrating Origin by going big, and by that we mean they're turning on the six-metre by five-metre outdoor screen. 

All three games will be taking over the big screen at this beachside location in Sydney's north. Discounted jugs of Furphy beer, lots of atmosphere and an ocean lapping just outside the pub's front door mean that this locale is a good bet for any footy fan. 

At this gussied up Petersham pub you'll find a huge HD projector screen and good sound. This year, you can get two VB jugs and three hats for the princely price of $40 from 5pm to 7pm before every game. 

Our favourite party pub is also a sports-lovers hub and on Origin night they'll have the game live on the big screen with full commentary. You'll find $15 parmis, $15 jugs and two massive screens to take in all the action. 

This CBD bar will be pouring discounted jugs of Furphys to keep all three games pumping. 

Origin night is loud and proud at the Oxford Tavern, where you can hedge your chances and go into the draw to win a VB merch pack and NRL grand final tickets.
