Twickenham Stadium's Museum of Rugby is where the world's largest collection of rugby memorabilia helps tell the story of how a schoolboy game became an internationally renowned professional sport. Painting's, archive match footage from around the globe and even a scrummaging machine that tests your strength bring the game's vibrant history to life, promising an interactive experience for all the family. Fancy a peek inside the England's dressing room? A Stadium Tour will get you there. Sit in the seat of your favorite player before finding out how it feels to run out of the player's tunnel- now that's something to shout about! Also visit the Rugby Store whilst at the stadium.
In 1907, The Rugby Football Union purchased 10 1/4 acres of land in Twickenham to build a stadium for the exclusive use of playing rugby. Over the next two years the infrastructure was completed and the stadium, designed to accommodate 20,000 people both seated and standing was ready for use. The first match at the stadium took place in 1909 and the first international between England and Wales was played in January 1910.
After extensive rebuilding between 1981 and 1995, the stadium as we know it today was completed, with a capacity of 75,000 (all seated). The stadium now houses a number of large restaurants and function suites, over 150 executive boxes, The Museum of Rugby, The Rugby Store and several smaller shops. Overall, the total area of the stadium has increased from 10 acres in 1907 to 35 acres in 1997.
In December 2004 the RFU received planning permission for the redevelopment of the South Stand, and work on the new stand started in June 2005. The new Stand will complete the stadium's bowl, increasing its capacity to 82,000 as well as adding a 4 star hotel and vastly increasing the function space available.
There are multiple bars located on the different levels throughout the stadium. The maximum order at each bar is 4 drinks. All bottles served are plastic. All bars are cash only bars. There is a cash point in the East Stand, Level 1. No glass bottles or cans are allowed into the stadium. For all major matches and some of the minor matches, Karaoke takes place for 2 hours, post match, in the Scrum and Ruck & Maul Bars on Level 2. There are numerous concessionaire stands located around the stadium's concourse serving a variety of food products including burgers, hot dogs, fish & chips, baguettes and Indian cuisine. In addition to these, there are public food outlets located on levels 2 and 4.
Why not enhance your visit to Twickenham Stadium by going behind the scenes and experiencing Twickenham from the player's point of view. Take a private tour of the stadium or soak up rugby's history and learn how Billy Williams' Cabbage Patch was first developed for the sport with a visit to the Museum of Rugby.
Since 2003 the Home of England Rugby has hosted concerts from the likes of U2, Genesis, The Police and The Rolling Stones. Twickenham Stadium will be hosting more concerts in 2008 and, subject to licensing, Twickenham Experience will be providing official hospitality at these events.
Twickenham Stadium is also a versatile conference and meeting venue on the edge of London and Middlesex with 10 main function rooms that suit a variety of medium to large conference events and a plethora of corporate boxes ideal for smaller meetings.
