World Cup is around the corner and I need to sort out my backyard before it starts

Been putting this off forever but I'm finally doing something about it. Got maybe 8 to 10 people coming over for games and right now we're all just crowding around inside which is fine but kind of miserable in the summer heat.

The backyard has decent space, I just never bothered to actually set it up. Thinking a sectional sofa, maybe a TV mount or a projector situation, and obviously a cooler setup. The seating is the part I'm most lost on because I have no idea what holds up outside and what's just going to look sad by September.

Has anyone done a backyard overhaul specifically for entertaining? What did you actually end up with and would you do anything differently?
