Full detailAbout Allianz Stadium Twickenham
Twickenham holds around 82,000 in a three-tier bowl wrapped on all four sides, the home of English rugby. The best views sit along the halfway line in the middle or upper tiers, the loudest atmosphere is in the lower tier behind the posts, and the upper corners are the best value. Much of the middle tier is debenture and hospitality seating. It hosts England internationals including the Six Nations and autumn Tests, plus the Premiership final and major concerts.
The world's largest dedicated rugby union stadium, an enclosed bowl of three tiers of covered seating rebuilt through the 1990s and 2000s, with a hotel built into the South Stand. It was renamed Allianz Stadium in 2024. The wrap-around lower and upper tiers generate a famous swell of noise for Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.
