Insurer GIO has signed on for a further four years as the naming rights sponsor of Canberra Stadium.
The Territory first partnered with GIO in a historic arrangement in 2013 and today, GIO has confirmed its support until 2026.
“The GIO naming rights sponsorship has provided significant support for the stadium, our sporting teams and the broader community. I am delighted to further strengthen our partnership with GIO over the coming four years.” said Minister for Sport and Recreation Yvette Berry.
GIO has been an integral part of the stadium’s journey over the past eight seasons. Around 220 games of rugby league and union played at the ground featuring our home teams the Canberra Raiders and Brumbies.
GIO Stadium Canberra has also hosted many international sporting events, concerts and theatre experiences, along with local community events such as Stadium Golf, which is now in its third year.
“The extension of this partnership comes at an exciting time for Canberra’s sports lovers with the Brumbies and the Brumbies Super W teams both kicking off their seasons – and the Canberra Raiders lining up against the Sharks at GIO Stadium Canberra tonight.”
“This agreement with GIO will enable us to continue to showcase great sport and events at GIO Stadium Canberra,” said Minister Berry.
Matt Pearson, GIO Executive General Manager said the renewed naming rights of Canberra’s premier sporting venue demonstrates GIO’s ongoing commitment to the ACT community.
“We are incredibly proud to be extending our partnership with GIO Stadium. We’ve seen locals and visitors share many memorable moments at this iconic venue, and we look forward to more in the future,” Mr Pearson said.
