CommBank Stadium will host four Wests Tigers home games in 2025, 2026 and 2027.
Campbelltown Sports Stadium will host four games in 2025 and 2026, with an option for the 2027 season.

Leichhardt Oval will host three home games plus the team’s last trial match, in 2025 and 2026, with an option for the 2027 season.

Wests Tigers will continue to support the NRL’s Magic Round with a home game to be played as part of the Brisbane extravaganza in 2025, 2026 and 2027.
The club has arrived at this three-year stadium policy after months of detailed planning, consultation, customer research and negotiations, involving key stakeholders, including councils and venue operators.

Leichhardt Oval and Campbelltown Sports Stadium will be undergoing much-needed improvements over the next couple of years, which will undoubtedly reduce the capacity at these venues during the construction phase.
A decision on playing home games at these venues in the 2027 season will not be made until construction timelines and ground capacities have been confirmed.

Wests Tigers CEO Shane Richardson says the club’s stadia plan has been shaped by many factors.
“A joint venture will always face difficulties around venue selection,” said Richardson.
“Our members and fans know that we will always make decisions which we believe are in the best interests of this club.
A longer-term decision on home grounds cannot be made until we have all the details around stadium improvements, and construction timelines.

“We are excited and proud to continue building our community in the south-west and Macarthur region, and playing games in Campbelltown is a big part of that.
“Equally, we look forward to the improvements at Leichhardt Oval, so that we can continue to call it our home as well.
"CommBank Stadium is an amazing place to watch footy which will give our members first class facilities to enjoy the Wests Tigers’ match day experience.
“It will also provide significant commercial opportunities that are needed for Wests Tigers to grow and become a top four club.”

Good choice. Parramatta Park is not bad. Will never forget the intensity and echo of our supporters there against Parramatta earlier this season. Spring it was. Easter maybe. We were more Felt like one of the barbarians when the gladiators fought the lions in the coluseam and the gladiator won. And the gladiator became a lion. It has a soul.

What’s the story on the upgrades at Cambo? First I’ve heard of that ..

What annoys me is that they put their hand up to be the home team at Magic Round every year

As long as you don’t play a qld team (which we have ) it’s a good idea . There’s a lot of tigers supporters in Brisbane .
The issue is you have to nominate yourself before the draw is put out . So basically at the mercy of NRL HQ fudgery.

Well..: they gave us the Dolphins the last time ..

Given that we have got three venues in Sydney now ..: I would prefer to keep all the games local … surely they don’t need the $300k that badly these days?
 
Well that’s done now they should be moving on to some new signings for this year and beyond , too 30 needs to be complete by today ?
then some new additions for the next couple years .
the ones getting the tap on the shoulder can come anytime

The COE I'd say. Hasn't been much said after the initial announcement.

I think the COE is opening next year I think but I don’t know for sure so don’t take my word for it. But I think it’s in more regards to the stadium itself. Richo has said he wants a stadium that can host 25-30K in attendance but also said both Leichhardt and Campbelltown need upgrades. Leichhardt is supposed to be getting the renovation in 27 which is most likely why it was listed as an option, but so far there’s been no word on actual upgrades to Campbelltown stadium itself. I think he’s basically given the council a deadline that if no plans are in place for upgrades by 27, they will not have any home games there.

Guaranteed it will be Parra, and more than probably the other temporary tenant Penrith.

Club just keeps doing stupid things for stupid reasons.

It will be parra for sure… at least give them the home game on Easter Monday … Parra can get the other home game in Round 27 next year
