Saracens agree five-year stadium partnership with Spurs

Saracens Rugby Club and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club are delighted to announce an exciting five-year partnership that will see Saracens play its annual showpiece fixture at the new, state-of-the-art Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

With a shared ethos of sport-led regeneration in north London communities, this partnership is a tremendous opportunity for both clubs to work more closely together.  Saracens prides itself on creating lasting memories for Sarries fans and is thrilled to offer them the unforgettable experience of cheering on their heroes at this iconic venue.

Nigel Wray, Chairman of Saracens said: “As someone brought up at White Hart Lane, for me and Saracens it’s a really special opportunity for us to partner with our fellow north Londoners, with whom we share so many of our core values.

“Tottenham Hotspur have shown themselves to be true innovators in the development of their new stadium and I know you will all share in my excitement at the news that we will make their ground the home of our showpiece fixture.

“Not only this but they are, like us, a club who care massively about their community; who strive to create opportunities in their local area, and who have had such an impact on the young people they work with. The new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will dramatically impact the whole area.

“Together with Spurs we have the opportunity to create something very special in north London. I really do look forward to seeing our partnership come to life!”

The new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a state-of-the-art multi-purpose venue which will provide an unrivaled spectator experience.

The ‘wall of sound’ generated by a capacity 62,062 crowd, including a 17,500 single-tier home southern stand, won’t be easily matched by any other venue in the UK.

The stadium is fully inclusive and caters for all fans needs from food, to access, to technology and seating.

With two NFL matches coming to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium later this year, the venue is well set to host a world-class team in Saracens and fans are sure to enjoy their experience in the north of London.

Daniel Levy, Tottenham Hotspur Chairman said: "This agreement with Saracens further reinforces our aspiration to deliver a world-class multi-use venue in our home of Tottenham.

"To attract one of world rugby's biggest club sides will bring a new audience to the area, as well as help drive significant socio-economic benefits for businesses and local people, as we continue to underline our commitment to the regeneration of North Tottenham.

"We look forward to welcoming Saracens and their fans to Tottenham and delivering world-class rugby matchday experiences, showcasing our new stadium and all the surrounding area has to offer”

"This is an exciting partnership and, alongside Premier League and NFL matches, it is one that continues to underline our desire to create a sports and entertainment destination that we believe can transform this area of London."
