About Twickenham Stadium

Taking its name from the neighborhood of Southwest London where it is located, Twickenham Stadium is the home of English rugby. The largest rugby union stadium in the world and the second largest stadium of any kind in the UK after Wembley, Twickenham is also the fourth largest stadium in all of Europe. Sometimes known as the Cabbage Patch because the plot of land it was built on was once a cabbage farm, Twickenham has been the home stadium of the England national rugby team since they played their first game there in 1938 - incidentally, the first rugby match ever to be shown live on TV.

Twickenham is still the home of English rugby and has been the scene of countless dramatic matches over the years. When it's not being used for rugby, Twickenham also hosts major events and has seen concerts by the likes of Iron Maiden, Rihanna, Eminem, and Beyoncé. A major economic contributor to this area of London, Twickenham Stadium is an iconic structure, no matter what brings you here.

Whether you're planning to watch a rugby game or see some other event, you'll find it much easier if you don't bring heavy bags with you. No bags bigger than an A4 sheet of paper are allowed inside - that's approximately 21 cm x 30 cm. Twickenham does offer luggage storage service for some events, but not all, and the prices vary according to what brings you to the stadium. For that reason, and to avoid any confusion, the simplest thing is not to bring any bags with you at all, and that's what the stadium encourages you to do.

Instead, leave your bags behind at a local luggage storage. Twickenham Stadium may not have left luggage facilities you can use, but Bounce certainly does.
