Enjoy a Match at Headingley Stadium with West Yorkshire Hotels

The stadium actually consists of two distinct and separate grounds, with a common stand housing facilities for both. The Headingley Carnegie Rugby Stadium and Headingley Carnegie Cricket Stadium make attending a match convenient for enthusiasts of both sports, rather than them having to travel farther afield to attend matches. The stadium changed its name in 2006 to acknowledge sponsorship from the local Leeds Metropolitan University, which has a sports facility called the Carnegie School of Exercise and Physical Education. If you're based nearby at a West Yorkshire hotel or guesthouse, pop along here to attend a match or to take a tour. There are plenty of refreshments facilities both in the stadium and close by, and Leeds city centre is within easy reach too.
