Penrith has confirmed it will host eight home games at Parramatta’s CommBank Stadium next season.
It comes as the Panthers prepare to farewell BlueBet Stadium at the end of the season ahead of a major redevelopment.
The Panthers will play eight of their 12 home games at CommBank next year. Another home game will be played in Las Vegas, while Mudgee and Bathurst will also host home matches. For the first time, Penrith will also be the home team for a Magic Round match.
The club will ‘Pantherise’ CommBank Stadium with its distinctive colours, themes, and enthusiastic fan culture.
“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.
“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.”
Penrith will announce 2025 membership packages next month.
