The Sports Bra, Portland’s first women’s sports bar, is set to open on Friday. This establishment, founded by Jenny Nguyen, has been in the news since its announcement of franchise plans in April. In May, Nguyen was named grand marshal for the Rose Festival’s Starlight Parade, further cementing The Sports Bra’s place in the spotlight.
Now, The Sports Bra is going international with a pop-up at the Cannes Lions Festival International Festival of Creativity in Cannes, France. Guests can enjoy The Bra’s signature cocktails while watching women’s sports on screens and browsing sports memorabilia. Basketball champ and rap superstar Flau’jae Johnson will be making a special guest appearance at this event.
If you are interested in attending this international event, you can fly from Portland to Nice, France for around $1000. Alternatively, you can visit the international headquarters of The Sports Bra located at 2512 N.E. Broadway in Portland by taking a Trimet bus for just $2.80.
