What makes Emirates Stadium different from other event venues?

Emirates Stadium is in a league of its own when it comes to playing host to world-class events. But what really makes this venue so memorable to delegates? 

 

Flexible and customisable spaces

Emirates Stadium has four large meeting and event spaces, with two capable of holding up to 1200 guests in a reception-style format. These spaces can be customised for both small and large events, and all offer impressive views of the pitch. 

If you're planning a sizable event, the Royal Oak and Woolwich offer spacious settings ideal for larger gatherings, while still maintaining a warm and welcoming atmosphere. For those in search of a unique backdrop, Highbury provides stunning pitch views and natural light. And for grand affairs, Dial Square offers modern amenities and ample space, making sure that your big event is a huge success. 

Emirates Stadium also offers exclusive venues like the Diamond Club, The Avenell Club and The WM, ideal for intimate corporate dinners and networking events. 

 

Team building activities

We can provide a huge range of customisable team-building exercises designed to encourage collaboration, communication, and problem-solving skills among team members. These include unique experiential activities such as annual play on the pitch events and indoor team games.

With our comprehensive approach, the Emirates Stadium team creates memorable and impactful team-building events.
