IMG have signed a ‘multi-year’ contract with Fulham to deliver hospitality packages in the Riverside Stand, according to a press release this afternoon.
The Cottagers revealed their plans for premium hospitality in the new stand a fortnight ago, with the Riverside matchday experience including fine dining in a series of packages in the stand that has only been partially open during Fulham’s last two seasons in the top flight.
IMG’s senior vice president of global sports, Jordan Nicolson, said: “We’re incredibly excited to partner with Fulham FC, a club and ground steeped in history.
“The new Riverside Stand will redefine the matchday experience at Craven Cottage, offering flexible options to those football fans and businesses wanting anything from a quick bite to eat and beer pre match within a sports bar environment, to a table on the water’s edge with a glass of champagne and Michelin-calibre dining. These new best-in-class facilities, set looking out over the iconic River Thames, cannot be matched!”
Fulham chief executive officer, Alistair Mackintosh added:
“We’re delighted to welcome IMG supporting the on-sale of a new set of extraordinary football hospitality experiences in the new Riverside Stand. Their reputation, vast experience, and reach will add enormous value to our new and impressive destination in the Capital, making them the right partner to support the sale and delivery of new world-class matchday experiences at Craven Cottage.”
