We bring fans closer to the game
Homefans connects passionate sports fans with local hosts who deliver authentic, unforgettable live sports experiences around the world.
Our mission
The best sports memories don’t start when the game begins.
They start in local bars, on packed streets heading to the stadium, and in traditions only locals know.
Homefans was created so fans don’t just attend sporting events abroad: they live them. Through our global network of local hosts, we connect travellers to the rituals, communities, and culture that make every sporting destination unique.
Because a ticket gets you into the venue. Homefans gets you into the experience.
We are changing the way people experience sports
Homefans is the leading marketplace for authentic sports experiences, connecting passionate local fans with travelers from around the world.
We’re on a mission to revolutionize the way people explore sports culture — helping fans go beyond the stadium by discovering and booking once-in-a-lifetime experiences led by real locals.
Thousands of travelers have already turned their sports bucket list dreams into reality with Homefans. From chanting in the stands to sharing stories over local meals — this is how football (and sport) should be experienced. And we’re only just getting started.
Homefans was built to go beyond the 90 minutes
Luke and Daniel founded Homefans after realizing that something was missing from traditional sports travel: meaningful, local connection.
A few years earlier, Luke traveled to Manchester to see his beloved Manchester United live. But outside of the stadium, he felt lost — unsure of where to go or how to experience the city like a true fan. Like many travelers, he stuck to tourist routes and missed out on the local heartbeat of matchday culture.
That changed when he met local fans who welcomed him into their community. From pre-match rituals to post-game conversations in local pubs, he finally saw what football is really about: shared stories, local traditions, and friendships that last long after the final whistle.
Back home, he wanted to make this kind of experience accessible to everyone. That’s why Homefans exists: to help the next generation of sports fans connect with locals, go beyond the match, and create unforgettable memories together.
