Launching in Phoenix
Fancav is brand new and in beta — you're joining at the very beginning. Events and users are growing every week, and every fan who signs up helps us build something bigger. Be part of what game day becomes.
See Your Founding Fan Benefits →WHY WE BUILT THIS
Fancav started with a navy blue Dallas Cowboys hoodie. Every time I wore it, strangers would spot the star and stop me — at the grocery store, the park, a restaurant. A few words, a fist bump, and then we'd go our separate ways. But every game day, I'd still end up watching alone.
I built Fancav because I'm a fan first — and fans deserve better than watching alone. Whether you already have a crew ready to show up to your fan cave on game day or you're still looking for your people, this is for you.

Game Day Is Better With Your People.
Join thousands of fans finding and hosting watch parties near them.
Create Your Profile
Tell us your teams — NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, Premier League, or College Football. We'll use them to find your people on game day.
Find Watch Parties
Browse nearby events hosted by real fans of your teams — or find a local bar or venue hosting a watch party for the whole crowd. Filter by team, date, or distance, then RSVP in seconds.
Host Your Own
Open your fan cave to fellow fans. Set your capacity, pick your game, and let your people find you. We verify every host and attendee through Stripe so everyone feels confident about who they're meeting on game day.
Your Team Has Fans Everywhere.
Stop watching alone. Fancav connects you with real fans of your teams who are hosting watch parties right in your neighborhood. Same passion. Same heartbreak. Same team.
Start the Game on Common Ground.
Every Fancav watch party is built around your teams — so everyone in the room already has something in common with you. No awkward small talk. Just game day.
One Less Subscription to Worry About.
Being a fan can be expensive. Keeping up with every game means juggling more streaming bills than ever. At a Fancav watch party, the broadcast is already handled. You just show up.
Be first to know when we launch in your city.
THIS IS WHAT GAME DAY LOOKS LIKE.
WATCH WITH CONFIDENCE.
REAL PEOPLE. VERIFIED IDENTITIES.
Every Fancav member verifies their email and a real U.S. phone number at signup. Fan hosts and attendees at fan-hosted watch parties complete a one-time government ID verification through Stripe — the same trusted platform used by Airbnb, Lyft, and millions of businesses worldwide. No anonymous accounts, no fake profiles. Just real fans, confirmed.
YOUR PRIVACY. YOUR TERMS.
For fan-hosted events, the exact address is never shown until 24 hours before the event — and only to confirmed guests. Your full name is never displayed to other users. Your privacy is protected every step of the way.
HOSTS CONTROL THE GUEST LIST.
Set your capacity, require RSVP approval, and optionally limit your event to fans of the same gender. You decide who comes through the door — every time. Every user and event can be reported directly to the Fancav team.
Prefer a public venue?
Fancav features watch parties at local bars, restaurants, and sports venues — all verified by Google Places. No ID verification required — just show up and enjoy the game.
SHOW UP. GROW THE COMMUNITY. EARN YOUR STATUS.

For Venues & Sports Bars
Put Your Venue on the Game Day Map.
Fans on Fancav are already looking for somewhere to watch. Make sure they find you.
Fancav shows you which sports fanbases are near your venue, which games they care about, and where watch party coverage is missing. Fancav does the research — you fill the seats.
Know Your Fans Before Game Day
Fancav maps sports fanbases by neighborhood. See which teams have fans near your venue and which upcoming games they care about most — before you decide which nights to host.
RSVPs You Can Count On.
Fans commit before game day. See who's coming, plan your staffing, and track verified attendance — not just RSVPs that don't show up.
Free During Beta. Early Advantage Forever.
No subscription. No commission. Businesses who join now lock in preferential pricing when paid tiers launch.
How Fans Choose Your Venue.
Fans filter by team, distance, and venue type. A strong Fancav presence means you appear first when a fan nearby is looking for somewhere to watch the game. Every event you host builds your visibility and brings fans back next week.

Safety is a core pillar of Fancav — not an afterthought. Every fan verifies their email and phone at signup. Fan hosts and anyone RSVPing to a fan-hosted watch party complete a one-time government ID verification through Stripe — confirming they're exactly who they say they are. Business venue events at bars and restaurants don't require ID verification — just show up. Fan hosts must also upload a real profile photo before their first event. The exact address for fan-hosted events is only revealed to confirmed guests within 24 hours of the event. Every user and event can be reported directly to the Fancav team.
Every season, you earn your way up through Fan, Superfan, Diehard, and Legend by attending events, hosting watch parties, and referring friends. Higher tiers unlock real benefits — priority access, bigger events, and more. Hold a tier long enough and it becomes Lifetime status. Sign up during beta to earn the permanent Founding Fan badge.
Founding Fan is a permanent badge for fans who join during Fancav's beta period. It never expires, can't be earned after beta ends, and marks you as part of the community that helped build Fancav from the start. No engagement required — just complete your profile during beta.
