Kayo Sports agrees naming rights deal for home venue for NRL’s Dolphins

NRL debutant club the Dolphins has today announced a naming rights partnership that will see the club’s home venue renamed as the Kayo Stadium.

Set to enter the NRL competition in 2023, the Dolphins’ agreement with the sports broadcaster, which includes the NRL among its properties, aims to expand on Kayo Sports’ current 1.3 million customers.

Announcing the new four-year agreement, Kayo Sports Executive Director, Cate Hefele stated “the arrival of the Dolphins in the NRL means more live games, more action, and greater competition.

“The club has a large and passionate fan base. We can’t wait to welcome Dolphins fans, and all rugby league fans to Kayo Stadium to watch their team in action through this exciting partnership.

“And for fans watching at home, Kayo Sports will continue to be the only place to see every game of every round live and ad-break free.”

Dolphins’ Chief Executive, Terry Reader said the announcement came on a big day for the club, adding “today we announced that Kayo Sports will be the naming rights partner of our stadium here, our spiritual home here in Redcliffe where we will play three of our NRL games - not to mention our main trial in only six weeks’ time.

"This is another great example of why Brisbane needs a second team, it’s another big partner behind the club and a wonderful turn out from fans to watch the first official open training session.”

“Kayo Stadium is Brisbane’s best boutique stadium and has hosted the NRLW Grand Final as well as being a base for Brisbane Roar’s A-League matches.

“Kayo Sports is the ultimate destination for fans and we believe Kayo Stadium will provide the same level of excitement for our members and supporters.”

The Dolphins will play their first home game at the newly branded Kayo Stadium when they take on the Titans in an official NRL trial match on 19th February.
