With the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro officially kicking off Friday, we know you’ll be doing a lot of streaming on your computer at home for the next two weeks (and let’s be honest, at work, too).

It might be a good idea to give your operating system the occasional break by watching swimming relays and soccer matches on a big screen with your fellow New Yorkers.

Below the map you’ll find a list of bars and restaurants in the city with TVs, organized by their country allegiances so you can cheer with a crowd. Be sure to call the venue ahead of time to make sure they're showing your favorite events. And if you have other suggestions about where your countrymen gather to watch the games, let us know.
