Georges River Council is proud to announce a new era for Jubilee Stadium, with St George Venues confirmed as its official naming rights partner.
The sponsorship deal spans three years, with an option for a three-year extension. This emphasises the long-term commitment and investment in sport and infrastructure in Georges River.
Jubilee Stadium is one of greater Sydney's most iconic sporting facilities, hosting elite sporting moments for over 80 years. This includes the NRL (National Rugby League), NRLW (National Rugby League Women's), AFL (Australian Football League) and Football Australia matches. The stadium is the home ground to the St George Illawarra Dragons NRL and NRLW teams, and Sydney FC AFC Champions matches.
St George Venues is a collective of iconic local clubs in the heart of the St. George District. A local organisation, they have a deep connection to the community with extensive experience in hospitality, entertainment and supporting local sport.
This partnership reinforces support for local jobs, continued investment into the community and strengthening the Georges River region's sporting and events economy.
Georges River Council Mayor Elise Borg said, "This partnership marks an exciting new chapter for one of our most treasured sporting assets. It is a privilege to have our own stadium, Jubilee Stadium, in our great community.
"Working with a local organisation like St George Venues reflects our shared commitment to community pride, local jobs and long-term investment in sport and events. This is about securing a strong future for Jubilee Stadium while delivering lasting economic and social benefits for Georges River."
Chief Executive Officer of St. George Venues, Craig Epton, said the partnership reflects St. George Venues' ongoing investment in the region and its people.
"St. George Venues has proudly served our local community for decades, and this partnership with Georges River Council is a natural extension of our commitment to supporting the things that matter most to our residents in the St. George district."
"Sport has always played an important role in bringing people together and Jubilee Stadium is a place where generations of fans have created lasting memories. We are incredibly proud to see the St. George Venues name associated with such an important community landmark."
"Becoming the naming rights partner of Jubilee Stadium is another example of our organisation investing in important infrastructure that our community relies on and loves."
Ralph Piggott, St. George Venues Chairman, welcomed the announcement and highlighted the positive impact of local organisations supporting community infrastructure.
"From our contributions to local charities and sporting clubs, to this landmark partnership with Georges River Council, every step has been guided by our commitment to the people of this region. Seeing the St. George Venues name on Jubilee Stadium is a moment that speaks to who we are and who we intend to remain."
"We look forward to building a strong partnership with Georges River Council and seeing more activity at Jubilee Stadium for the St George community. That means not only professional sporting events, but grassroots sport, entertainment and community events as well. There is something truly special about tomorrow's sporting stars having the chance to play on the same field as their heroes, and we want to see more of that at this great venue."
The partnership is a shared commitment to sport, community pride and economic growth, with a shared, future-focused vision for Jubilee Stadium.
