More informationStadium Experience is a not-for-profit marketing collaboration, set-up by the clubs themselves to promote stadium venues for conference and events. If you work in a football, rugby or cricket club in the UK or Ireland and have conference and events facilities to promote, then you are eligible to join Stadium Experience.

Stadium Experience is owned by the member clubs. The association is run by a voluntary Leadership Team with representatives from a variety of clubs, as well as a dedicated Marketing & PR Manager not connected to any specific club. Collette Salmon from Liverpool Football Club is our Chair, and David Timms from Chelsea Football Club is our Vice Chair.
Stadium Experience currently has around 40 football, rugby and cricket club members across the UK & Ireland – See our list of current Stadium Experience Members. See what our members think about Stadium Experience – Testimonials.

Virtual Members Meetings – Held monthly. All members are invited to share best practice and ideas, bring relevant topics to the table, as well as meeting potential suppliers.
