The Stadium Events and Hospitality Awards offers unique and prestigious sponsorship opportunities. The event recognises the fantastic commitment of the matchday hospitality and specialist event teams that work tirelessly behind the scenes at major football, rugby and cricket venues across the UK & Ireland.
The last awards were held at Manchester City Football Club in 2019. See the video below.
The 2021 Awards: The 2021 Stadium Events & Hospitality Awards will be held at Anfield Stadium, home of Liverpool Football Club in the Spring/Summer. The exact date will be confirmed in accordance with current Government guidance, and once the fixtures for the 2020/21 season have been confirmed.
The Audience: The awards are an excellent opportunity to raise your profile to top stadia venues (football, rugby and cricket), with over 400 guests in attendance on the night, from 50+ stadium venues across the UK and Ireland. Guests include decision-makers from teams such as sales, conference and events, matchday hospitality, chef teams, public catering teams, operational departments and senior management attending to share the celebrations and network.
