Although Emirates Stadium will not be staging any events, the SuperCentre Celebration will play a huge part towards to success of the London Corporate Games, with a live band and Cocktail Party ensuring that the competitors from major companies and institutions can start the weekend in the best possible style.

Director of the London Corporate Games, Brian Daniel said: “Emirates Stadium has been chosen over many other venues to be the location of our SuperCentre. Arsenal Football Club and Emirates Stadium are world renowned names and the facility itself is state-of-the-art. It is an exceptionally suitable venue which will offer the competitors real excitement, as well as offering an ideal environment for all the activities for the opening of the Games.”

Arsenal Head of Hospitality, Steve Brice said: “We are delighted to be hosting the opening of the London Corporate Games in August. We are proud of our facilities at Emirates Stadium and hope all the participants will thoroughly enjoy the SuperCentre Celebration before the competitions begin over the weekend.”

The tournament will feature 14 sports, ranging from badminton to touch rugby – including cricket 8s, soccer 5s and 6s, netball, hockey, rugby 7s, karting, tennis, ten pin bowling, basketball, running and softball – and is open to both women and men.
