About Twickenham Stadium
Twickenham is the home of England rugby. It’s one of the world’s largest rugby union stadiums and the second-largest stadium in England, behind Wembley Stadium. Twickenham Stadium was inducted into the RugbyPass Hall of Fame in 2021.
At the turn of the 20th century, following sold out tests against New Zealand and South Africa at Crystal Palace, the Rugby Football Union realised the benefit of owning their own ground. As a result, they purchased a market garden in Twickenham in 1907. Two years later, the ground hosted its first game, when Harlequins played Richmond. The next year, England played their first game at Twickenham, when they took on Wales.
Ever since, Twickenham has undergone constant expansion and redevelopment. It now seats 82,000 spectators and has its own hotel, a performing arts complex, a health and leisure club and the World Rugby Museum.
Modern Twickenham is home to some of the greatest games on the English rugby calendar. England play almost all of their home games at the stadium, including all Six Nations Championship fixtures and matches against touring southern hemisphere sides like New Zealand, South Africa and Australia.
In addition to this, a number of other rugby games are also played regularly at Twickenham, including the Middlesex Sevens, Premiership Rugby fixtures, Anglo-Welsh Cup (now Premiership Cup) matches, the Varsity Match between Oxford and Cambridge universities and Heineken Champions Cup games. On top of this, Twickenham Stadium has also had the honour of hosting two Rugby World Cup finals (1991 and 2015).
Although Twickenham primarily hosts rugby union matches, in recent years it has also hosted a number of other high profile events, including rugby league Challenge Cup finals, American football matches and live concerts from bands such as The Rolling Stones, U2 and Metallica.
