World Rugby Museum
What Visitors Say
What a great stadium tour, so much history to see as well as a true modern rugby stadium. Iconic does not come close.
Great experience at the home of England Rugby. The tour of the stadium was comprehensive and the guide was very knowledgeable. For any sports fan this is a must do. Short walk from Twickenham Station.
Brilliant. Very interesting. The tour was fantastic and our guide, Mike, very pleasant and knowledgeable
Really enjoyable Stadium Tour. Our Tour Guide (Neil) was very cheerful and informative during the tour. Access to the stands, Royal Box, Changing rooms and Boardroom, plus access to the pitchside via the player's tunnel. The Museum was a great experience. Plenty of history and displays, plus you can have a go at the scrum machine and the virtual reality goalkicking game. Enjoyable time was had.
Lovely meeting rooms available for business events etc. Attended a business summit and found the Rose suite very lovely and spacious
