Eden Park and Airbnb are giving sports fans the chance to call one of the world’s most famous playing fields ‘home’ as the stadium opens its doors to two state-of-the-art glamping domes. Available to be booked via Airbnb all year round – on both match days and non-match days – Eden Park’s new Staydium Glamping initiative gives guests unprecedented access to the 116-year-old sports ground.
The custom-designed domes are located in a sheltered pocket in the stadium’s north-eastern corner.
Nick Sautner, Eden Park’s Chief Executive Officer, says the accommodation set-up is the first of its kind across stadia globally. “Eden Park is a strategic asset for New Zealand as well as a community asset for Auckland, and we look forward to providing unforgettable experiences around the clock with Staydium Glamping.”
Airbnb spokesperson Brent Thomas said: “Airbnb connects people with unique travel experiences, so they can belong anywhere. We’re thrilled to team up with Eden Park to make this available to guests, giving visitors a chance to spend the night in this iconic national stadium steeped in so much sporting history.”
