Less than one year to go to Rugby World Cup 2019, hospitality purchasers get a once in a lifetime opportunity to have dinner with World Cup winner Ben Kay and the Webb Ellis Cup.
With less than one year to go before the opening match at Rugby World Cup 2019, Japan, hospitality sales have surpassed all expectations. Individuals and companies have rushed to purchase hospitality packages through STH Live, the exclusive official hospitality provider in the UK.ย Sales are 66 per cent higher than forecast, with some packages now sold out.
To celebrate the success, STH Live is offering one lucky fan the chance to have dinner with Ben Kay MBE. Kay was a member of the 2003 Rugby World Cup-winning England team, and is now one of the countryโs leading rugby pundits. The winner will get to invite eight guests for an unforgettable evening of fine dining and drinks with fascinating rugby insight from a player that achieved the very highest level of success.
Not only that, but the famous Webb Ellis Cup will also be present, with guests able to have their photo taken with one of the most recognisable sports trophies in the world.
To be in with a chance to win this amazing experience, rugby fans just need to confirm their hospitality booking by the end of the year with STH. For each package bought, the individual or company will be put in the prize draw, which will be held in early 2019.
Create your perfect hospitality experience
Ben Kay, the brand ambassador for STH Live and Rugby World Cup 2019 Official Hospitality, said: โThe Official Hospitality offering at Rugby World Cup is second-to-none and is an experience rugby fans from all over the world are desperate to be a part of. Combined with the fact the tournament is happening in Japan, which is a destination on many peopleโs bucket list, itโs going to be even more special.
โI canโt wait to meet some of the people going to Rugby World Cup 2019 at the exclusive dinner STH Live is offering. Not only will they get to see the Webb Ellis Cup, which is an amazing piece of sporting history, but weโll be treated to some great food and drink and Iโll hopefully be able to give them a glimpse into what they will experience in Japan next year and how their teams might do.โ
Rugby World Cup 2019 will involve 20 international teams, 48 matches, and 12 host cities. Interest is exceptionally high with more than 400,000 travelling visitors expected to be in Japan during the six-week tournament that will take place from 20 September to 2 November 2019. Hospitality purchasers from 39 different countries have already confirmed their place, promising a truly international atmosphere during the event.
