Stadium

Corporate hospitality at the forthcoming football events at
Wembley
The FA Cup
Final Saturday 17th May 2008
Cardiff v Portsmouth
|
The FA Cup Final Corporate
Hospitalityl |
Wembley Stadium London
England
Saturday 17 May 2008 |
The
Final for the "Oldest football tournament in the world",
returns to Wembley Stadium in 2008.
As in past years we will be providing a comprehensive
hospitality package on the day for supporters of both
finalists and others that includes reserved tables, a
champagne reception, open bar all day, lunch with wines,
match programmes, celebrity guests and ex-players and much
much more to make for a memorable day for you and your
invited guests.
These arrangements are for supporters and fans that will
have their own match tickets and require
somewhere to go before and after the match whether with
clients, work colleagues, family or friends. A top venue
with a friendly atmosphere where supporters of both teams
can mix and enjoy the day with some buzz, mingle with
celebrities and ex-players and where everything is taken
care of on your behalf, leaving you to concentrate on the
important task of inviting the right people along for the
day and leaving us to make all the arrangements.
We are delighted to offer special
VIP Hospitality only
arrangements for 'match ticket holders' for this
must see event which takes place on Saturday 17th May 2008.
Please note that we will not be able to provide any
match tickets for this event. These should be
obtained from the FA or through your normal channels.

Situated right next door to the new Wembley Stadium, this 4*

as a Wembley Stadium Club Member for the next ten years!
Our main hospitality facility within the hotel will be The
International Suite on the ground floor which can cater for
up to 300 guests in comfort on reserved tables of 10 or 12

requiring their own exclusive facility.

Match Tickets for Football Events at Wembley Stadium...
Please note that SportsHospitality.com is not authorised to
provide Hospitality Packages that include match tickets to any
football matches taking place at Wembley Stadium. Since the opening
of the new stadium in May 2007 there is no longer any access for
anyone to obtain Hospitality Packages that include match tickets on
a match by match basis unless you are a sponsor, a private box
holder or a Club Wembley Member signed up for the next 10 years.
This is a complete reversal of the previous arrangements at the old
Wembley Stadium when corporate packages were available to the
corporate and general public for nearly every event on a match by
match basis. This was also the situation at the Millennium Stadium
for the last six FA Cup Finals and other matches that took place in
Cardiff.
However, we are pleased to be able to offer an excellent
'Hospitality Only' arrangement for all major events taking place at
Wembley Stadium but obviously without match tickets. Our hospitality
only arrangements take place within the 4* Wembley Plaza Hotel
adjoining the stadium and makes for a great convenient venue to
start and end your visit whilst entertaining clients, staff, family
or friends. Since we started using this venue
again in May this year, we have had nothing but praise for the level
of service and quality of the food. We intend making this our
preferred 'venue of choice' for all future events at Wembley.
Our arrangements at the Wembley Plaza Hotel are specifically
tailored to those companies or individuals that have official match
tickets for the event they are attending. In the main, match tickets
would have to be obtained direct from the FA (if you are an England
Fan Member), participating clubs for domestic fixtures or given to
you as a 'gift' by a sponsor, box holder or Club Wembley Member i.e.
"no monies has changed hands". Box Holders and Club Wembley Members
have this facility open to them, as part of their agreement with IMG
at Wembley, as well as being able to purchase extra tickets for
events at Wembley subject of course to availability.
So, if you experience difficulty in obtaining football tickets for
matches at Wembley, our advice is to make friends with one of the
sponsors, Box Holders or some of the 15,000 Club Members!
Travelling to Wembley and Car
Parking…
Please note that Wembley Stadium is now a ‘Public Transport Destination’ and as
such no cars will be allowed within two miles of Wembley on event days.
Rail, tube, bus and pedestrian routes have been upgraded to help the 90,000 fans
travel to and from the Stadium smoothly and safely on major event days. A
resident’s permit scheme operates in the local area on Stadium event days. Only
cars with official Wembley Stadium car park passes or resident’s passes will be
allowed to park in the area. The local council has stated that illegally parked
vehicles will be issued with large parking fines and towed away.
There are three stations close to Wembley Stadium all offering much improved
services and geared to cope with the 90,000 event day visitors. See
www.wembleystadium.com for further
information.
