American streamer IShowSpeed visited Slovakia as part of his European IRL tour 2025 and is currently walking through the streets of Bratislava. After stops in Croatia, Serbia, Turkey and Finland, he continues his journey through Central Europe and did not miss our country.
IShowSpeed could also be found on the streets of Bratislava today! He started his stream around lunchtime near Bratislava Castle. He was wearing the classic jersey of the country, which today is Slovak, with the number seven. In the first few minutes, a lot of people came to the streamer to take pictures. We even welcomed the streamer in Slovak and nothing else, with bread and salt!
Then Speed went to the city, tasted all the iconic Slovak dishes, such as bryndza halushi, strapacky, pierogi, horalka or kofola. However, what he will definitely not forget is how he got stuck in an elevator for a few minutes! Fortunately, no one was hurt and Speed continued to explore our capital.
To get the adrenaline going, Speed tried wakeboarding on Golden Sands and even went to see a UFO! Did you manage to meet Speed in person? If so, feel free to send us a photo in DM on our Instagram.
Who is IShowSpeed?
IShowSpeed, born Darren Watkins Jr, is an American streamer, YouTuber, and online personality who became famous for his explosive speech, extreme energy, and unpredictable behavior during live broadcasts. He started his career mainly in the field of gaming, but over time he switched to IRL streams (from real life), which brought him even greater international reach.
His popularity increased significantly during the Euro 2024 football championship, where he became a viral figure thanks to his unwavering devotion to Cristiano Ronaldo and emotional reactions to matches. Today, he is one of the most followed creators on YouTube and Twitch, with millions of fans around the world.
IRL tour
IRL tour (from English in real life) is a series of live streams during which IShowSpeed travels to different cities and countries and broadcasts directly from the streets. Instead of classic gaming content, he brings fans authentic experiences from the real world - he meets people, tries local food, comments on the surroundings and often spontaneously gets involved in various situations.
The Tour is known for its unpredictability, strong interaction with the audience, and viral moments that spread on TikTok and YouTube Shorts. For many fans, it is a unique opportunity to meet the streamer in person or watch how he reacts to new cultures and environments off-screen.
The fact that IShowSpeed personally visited Slovakia is exceptional not only for his fans, but also for the entire local online scene. It is rare for an internet star with such global reach to visit the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. His presence attracts the attention of the media, influencers and the public, creating an event that goes beyond ordinary online content.
