Kingsholm Stadium in Gloucester has unveiled plans for a fresh era this February 2025.

The famous ground with a passionate and dedicated fan base, is synonymous with Gloucester Rugby — pride of the city for over 150 years.

To mark a new chapter, the iconic venue is embracing a fresh modern look; showcasing a new logo for the stadium, with updated elements that pay homage to the club’s legacy and embrace a dynamic and contemporary feel.

Fans can also expect a new dedicated website showcasing the conference and event facilities, reinforcing Kingsholm as one of the largest conference and events venues in the county, accommodating up to 1,000 delegates with more than 20 suites and versatile spaces.

Upgraded lounges and executive boxes offer new opportunities for businesses to host meetings and events in premium spaces, with the 'day delegate rate' being a popular choice for clients.

What's more, for businesses looking to book conferences and events, the Kingsholm Stadium Club offers exclusive discounts and benefits, including 10 per cent off conference and event bookings and Gloucester Rugby regular fixtures for exclusive members.

Plus, with the appointment of new commercial sales director, James Forrester, the stadium is actively fostering and strengthening connections with local businesses across the county.

The evolution reinforces the stadium's role beyond rugby, establishing itself as a premier venue for conferencing and events within the south west. 

CEO of Gloucester Rugby, Alex Brown, said: 'Kingsholm is more than just a stadium; it’s the beating heart of Gloucester, the community, both supporters and businesses alike.

'This new era represents our vision for the future, ensuring that while Kingsholm will always be an iconic rugby venue, it is also recognised as a top-tier conferencing and events venue. Introducing a platform that creates a distinction between the two is an important step for our commercial business.'
