Rugby League- ABK Series England v Samoa

The series was the first time the two nations had played against one another since Samoa beat England to reach the World Cup Final by a golden point. The two-match ABK Series between England and Samoa was the finale of the 2024 Rugby League season, allowing England fans to see their team on the international stage against World Cup Finalist Samoa.

Alongside the usual entertainment and pageantry, we enhanced the match day show with several enhancements, having our DJ curate the in-match music and bring fans real-time live data to the big screens. Headingley’s match day featured a women’s and men’s doubleheader. The England women maintained their 100% record against the Welsh before England sealed their second victory to wrap up the test series win.
