SYDNEY ROOSTERS TO OFFICIALLY OPEN ALLIANZ STADIUM

BREAKING NEWS: Our Sydney Roosters will officially open the brand-new Allianz Stadium in the Round 25 match against the South Sydney Rabbitohs on Friday, September 2 in the final game of the regular season.

In the 250th meeting between the two clubs since Rugby League’s founding season in 1908, Roosters Members and supporters will be able to experience everything that the new 42,500-seat stadium has to offer, including:

  • A 360-degree open concourse inside and outside of the venue
  • Steep seating angles providing unrivalled views of the field
  • Merivale’s best food and beverage offers

Sydney Roosters CEO Joe Kelly was thrilled to see the Red, White and Blue host the first event at the Club’s brand-new home.

“The honour of hosting the inaugural event to be held at our home, the new Allianz Stadium, is one of which we are most proud. We have a deep connection to the precinct dating back to our foundation in 1908,” Mr Kelly said.

“Our Members and fans will have the very first opportunity to experience the new world-class facility and we would like to extend our thanks to the NSW Government for this addition to our Club’s rich history.

“The Roosters hosted the final event at the ground before it was demolished in 2018 and it is quite fitting that our return fixture will be against the same team, the South Sydney Rabbitohs. The 42,500 spectators there for the game will be able to reflect on being a part of history on what is sure to be an unforgettable event.”

Tickets will go on sale to the General Public through Ticketek at 10:00am on Friday, June 24.
