Allianz Stadium

Here at Allianz, we are proud of our involvement with the rugby community. Which is why we are so excited that we're extending our partnership with the Rugby Football Union (RFU) even further. From September, the home of England Rugby, Twickenham became ‘Allianz Stadium’.

This partnership will be transformative, not only to the elite men’s and women’s teams but also to community clubs across the country through investment into the grassroots game. It will also support the RFU's plans to redevelop the stadium over the next decade.
