The Gold Coast Titans are headed to Las Vegas, with the club officially confirmed to take part in the 2027 Telstra Premiership season opener in the entertainment capital of the world.
Launching 20-year celebrations at Allegiant Stadium against the Parramatta Eels; the Titans join the Melbourne Storm and Wests Tigers as the four NRL clubs to be part of the international extravaganza.
English Super League clubs Bradford Bulls and Leigh Leopards will also feature at the event on Saturday, February 27 (Sunday, February 28 in Australia).
Titans CEO Steve Mitchell said the historic opportunity marked a significant milestone for the club and would create an unforgettable experience for members, fans and corporate partners.
"We’re incredibly excited to be heading to Las Vegas in 2027," he said.
"This is a landmark opportunity for our club, kickstarting our 20-year celebrations on one of the biggest stages in the world.
"With the enduring support of the city, led by Mayor Tom Tate, the Gold Coast is an internationally recognised destination and there’s a natural synergy between our region and the entertainment capital of the US, Las Vegas.
"We’re also fortunate to have the expertise of our shareholders Jackie and Billy Cross, who have operated in Las Vegas for more than 30 years, and Gorden Tallis and Matty Johns - both of whom have played key roles in each of the previous three Vegas openers.
"Alongside the unwavering support of Rebecca and Brett Frizelle - passionate advocates for the event since its inception, the Titans are uniquely positioned to deliver a fan experience like no other.
"The NRL’s global strategy is extraordinary, and the Las Vegas concept has been the foundation of engaging with new markets and audiences abroad.
"We know there will be tremendous interest from our entire community to travel across and be part of the occasion, and we can’t wait to see Gold Coast Titans colours in Vegas in 2027."
