PASSION, COMMITMENT, ENJOYMENT AND EXCELLENCE, BOTH ON AND OFF THE PITCH.
WELCOME TO THE STOOP Harlequins ranks among the most prestigious clubs in world rugby and its famous quartered shirt is instantly recognised by supporters around the globe. Over half a century the club’s home at The Twickenham Stoop has established itself among the most popular, club rugby venues not just in the United Kingdom but also in Europe. The values of “passion, commitment, enjoyment and excellence both on and off the pitch” that have underpinned the club’s achievement in winning four trophies – The Amlin Challenge Cup, the Aviva Premiership, the LV= Cup and the Aviva A League, in the last two years, will be to the fore once again as the club competes in this season’s leading domestic and European tournaments.
During last season, the club undertook research among different groups of supporters as to their hospitality preferences. The outcome was a busy summer for the club’s commercial and stadium management as it made a significant investment in changing the configuration and upgrading the range of hospitality facilities available. The result is a range of flexible options that makes it easy for you to entertain in a high quality, sporting environment and deliver a memorable hospitality experience. This brochure describes the choices available from executive boxes to tables from two to ten people in our themed lounges. We hope that you will find something that matches your requirement and look forward to welcoming you to The Stoop during the season.
The combination of a family friendly match day experience and a playing style that is based on entertainment and enjoyment has attracted more people than ever to watch the club’s home matches at The Stoop.
