Panthers to play at CommBank Stadium in 2025

Penrith Panthers have confirmed that the club will host eight NRL home matches at CommBank Stadium in 2025.

The Panthers will embrace the world-class venue as its home during the redevelopment of Penrith Stadium.

With a seating capacity of 30,000, CommBank Stadium not only brings fans closer to the action than ever before but also boasts top-tier amenities, impeccable design, and technological innovations that redefine the standards of a world-class stadium experience.

The club will ‘Pantherise’ CommBank Stadium with its distinctive colours, themes, and enthusiastic fan culture, continuing the unparalleled atmosphere that the Panthers members and fans have created at their spiritual home.

The Panthers will ensure a seamless transition to the Western Sydney stadium, offering members premium seating options, convenient travel arrangements, and innovative additions such as member lounges and enhanced corporate offerings.

The club has also confirmed the remaining four home venues for 2025, including a historic season opener at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, as well as matches at Glen Willow Regional Sports Complex in Mudgee, Carrington Park in Bathurst, and home participation in Magic Round at Suncorp Stadium.

“We’re excited for the next chapter in the Panthers journey and thrilled to announce this partnership with Venues NSW,” Panthers Rugby League CEO Matt Cameron said.

In 2025, the Panthers home is where we all are and it’s vital that the Panthers community rally behind Ivan Cleary’s team to ensure continued on-field success.

“2025 is set to be an exciting year for the club as we open the season in Las Vegas, before hosting a match at Magic Round, playing twice in the Central West and eight games at a world-class stadium in Western Sydney.

“CommBank Stadium offers an unparalleled rugby league experience with fans close to the action within an electrifying atmosphere, exceptional facilities, and premier corporate facilities.

“Playing at CommBank Stadium will open up substantial commercial opportunities, further cementing the Panthers’ status as a leading NRL club.”

Venues NSW CEO Kerrie Mather added: “We can’t wait to welcome the reigning premiers the Penrith Panthers and their fans to CommBank Stadium for the 2025 NRL season.

“This is an exciting partnership with the Panthers who will call CommBank Stadium home until they return to a brand new Penrith Stadium.”

2025 Panthers Memberships will be on sale from September.

“We are thrilled to host the Subway Socceroos for this FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifier at CommBank Stadium, a venue renowned for its world-class facilities,” Johnson said.

“This event not only signifies the resumption of our journey towards the FIFA World Cup but also reflects the vibrant football culture in New South Wales, thanks to the region’s high grassroots participation rates.

“We are grateful for the support of the NSW Government and Destination NSW. Their commitment has been instrumental in bringing such high-calibre fixtures and events to our shores.

Subway Socceroos’ Head Coach, Graham Arnold said his players relished any opportunity to play in front of Australian fans.

“Our players are scattered across the world when playing for their clubs, the excitement they have to come together as a group and representthe nation has been a cornerstone of our success,” Arnold said.

“The opportunity to play in front of home fans and feel the energy they bring is so valuable for us, it provides a massive lift, not just in those individual moments but for the many that follow in our qualification journey.

“For the likes of Maty Ryan, Mitch Duke, Keanu Baccus and others from New South Wales, it’s important they enjoy the chance to wear the Australian jersey in their hometown in front of friends and family.

“It doesn’t matter how many times it comes about, playing in front of those who have helped you on your journey through football is such a rewarding and humbling experience, and celebrating that is an integral part of the culture we’ve built within this squad,” concluded Arnold.

Wallabies v Los Pumas at CommBank Stadium

Tickets Go On Sale for Wallabies v Los Pumas at CommBank Stadium

  • Australia will play Argentina in The eToro Rugby Championship Test match at CommBank Stadium on Saturday 15 July;
  • It will be the only rugby Test in Sydney this year as the Wallabies prepare for the Rugby World Cup later this year;
  • Tickets are on sale from 10am Thursday 11 May via Ticketek.

It’s the Wallabies’ only Test match in Sydney this year . . . The eToro Rugby Championship match against Argentina at CommBank Stadium on Saturday 15 July.

And tickets are on sale from 10am Thursday 11 May.

The Western Sydney Test will mark the first match on home soil for returning Wallabies Head Coach Eddie Jones.

Jones will go head-to-head against former Wallabies mentor Michael Cheika, who is now coach of Argentina who are coming off a highly successful 2022 season. The Los Pumas recorded a home series win against Scotland and victories over the Wallabies, All Blacks and England (the latter two away from home) in a stunning run of success.

Two weeks after Wallabies v Los Pumas at CommBank Stadium, the Wallabies will return to Melbourne for a Bledisloe Cup Test match. That match on 29 July will be the final game of The Rugby Championship, and the first of the two-leg Bledisloe Cup series that will culminate one week later in Dunedin.

For the Wallabies to win back the Bledisloe, they will need to win both matches.

With the Rugby World Cup in France from 8 September to 28 October, Australian rugby fans will only have these two opportunities to support their team on home soil in 2023 and cheer them on to the World Cup.

Rugby Australia President Joe Roff said: “Rugby World Cup years are always special, and we want the whole country to get behind the Wallabies as they strive for glory in France this year.

“There are only two games in Australia this year, and they represent a real opportunity to show the whole squad how much support they will have behind them back home in Australia.

“Both of these games will be huge, with Michael Cheika bringing a talented Argentina side to Sydney, and the infamous All Blacks at one of the biggest stadiums in the world.”

The eToro Rugby Championship Australia v Argentina match is proudly supported by the NSW Government through its tourism and major events agency Destination NSW.
