What’s the energy like in the city during the World Cup ?

Lived here since 2023 but haven’t seen a World Cup here. Friends and I want to do a get together to watch some games but decided that going to a game is too expensive. Thinking of having a get together here, wondering what the energy is usually like during the tournament? Are there usually big watch parties/people out and about watching games? Lots of bars with games on tv? Thinking of July 4th weekend. Thanks for any thoughts :)
