Instabase, a rental space matching platform operated by Rebase Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kai Sato), will hold a 'Soccer Viewing Support Campaign' for a limited time from May 29 (Fri) to July 19 (Sun), 2026, in conjunction with a global soccer tournament. Through the launch of a 'Soccer Viewing Support Space' feature page and the distribution of limited-time coupons, this campaign proposes rental spaces as a new option for group viewing, alongside homes and sports bars.
Due to the time difference between Japan and the host country of the June 2026 tournament, kickoff times for key matches will vary widely, from late-night and early-morning on weekdays to daytime on weekends. As match times are spread out, the need for group viewing—where fans want to watch on a big screen with high volume and cheer loudly with friends and family—is expected to rise according to individual lifestyles.
On the other hand, watching at home often requires noise considerations, and sports bars are prone to being fully booked, while karaoke venues and some restaurants have restrictions on the number of people and stay duration. In particular, places that can accommodate late-night or early-morning matches are limited, and options for those who want to gather to watch soccer are not yet sufficiently expanded. In fact, during the previous tournament from November to December 2022, the number of reservations for rental spaces on Instabase for the purpose of watching soccer was about 10 times the level of a normal month, indicating that the movement to utilize rental spaces as a venue for group viewing was already active.
Based on this background, Instabase will feature spaces equipped with TVs and projectors, and organize a flow that allows users to select spaces quickly according to the viewing scene. The goal is to expand the options for viewing experiences in rental spaces that match various lifestyles, from weekend daytime gatherings to all-night viewing in the early morning or late night.
Instabase aims to deliver various 'beginnings of things' in daily life by expanding new usage scenes such as sports viewing, beyond business and party use.
