Big Sporting July

Major Sporting Events in July to Bring Huge Crowds to Accor Stadium and Drive Visitation in NSW

From the NSW Blues and Game 3 of the 2023 Ampol State of Origin series to the Green and Gold of the Matildas on Day 1 of the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™, Sydney’s Accor Stadium will host two of the nation’s biggest sporting events this July.

In the space of eight magic days in July, the Stadium will host:

▪ The Westpac NSW Blues v Queensland Maroons in Ampol State of Origin Game 3 as the Blues kick off a new era and try to claw a game back into the Origin series on Wednesday 12 July;

▪ Australia v Republic of Ireland in an opening day blockbuster to the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ on Thursday 20 July.

Capacity crowds are expected at both events, bringing thousands of regional, interstate and international visitors to Sydney.

Ampol State of Origin Game 3

While the Westpac NSW Blues will be chasing their first win of the Ampol State of Origin series, demand for tickets to Origin 3 in Sydney remains high.

Despite Queensland’s recent dominance in Origin, NSW has a remarkable record at Accor Stadium where they have won 20 (and drawn 1) of the 30 Origin matches played at the Blues’ spiritual home.

NSW fans can be expected to turn Sydney Olympic Park into a Blues fortress come July 12.

The Blues will field a much changed lineup with returning faces Cody Walker, Jake Trbojevic, Reagan Campbell-Gillard & Jacob Safiti coming into the side along with debutants Bradman Best and Keaon Kolamatangi who will need the support of the Blatchys Blues crowd if they are to take down the Queensland Maroons.

Don’t miss out by securing your seat today to avoid disappointment with a full-house expected at the Stadium for NRL’s most thrilling game. Blue v Maroon. State v State. The Best v The Best.

Get your tickets here.

The FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™
Australia v Republic of Ireland

The FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ will be the biggest international sporting event seen in Australia since the Sydney 2000 Olympic & Paralympic Games.

The Matildas will feature on Day 1 of the tournament, with a sellout crowd expected for the match against Republic of Ireland at Accor Stadium, which will revert to its generic name Stadium Australia under FIFA’s international “clean venue” regulations.

Thirty two nations will be represented at FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™, with Stadium Australia to host five major games including the Final match on Sunday 20 August

The Matildas will go into the tournament ranked No.10 in the world, but they will have the benefit of passionate home support for all of their games.

FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ Kicks Off In 100 Days and Tickets Are Back On Sale!

In just 100 days, the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023™ will commence with opening games being played in both Australia and New Zealand.

Accor Stadium, which will revert to generic name Stadium Australia for the duration of the tournament, will host the CommBank Matildas’ opening night game against the Republic of Ireland on Thursday 20 July.

The Stadium will also host one game in each of the knockout-stage rounds including a Round of 16 match, a Quarter-Final, Semi-Final and the FIFA Women’s World Cup Final 2023™ on Sunday 20 August.

With today marking 100 days to go until the start of the tournament, single match passes are back on sale at fifa.com/tickets

To mark the 100-day milestone, Football Australia has unveiled an impressive mosaic to commemorate a multitude of significant moments and contributions since the inception of the bold and forward-thinking Legacy ’23 plan.

Football Australia’s mosaic to commemorate the Legacy ’23 plan

The year 2023 is poised to be the most thrilling in Australian football history, with the CommBank Matildas ranked Australia’s fourth most favoured national team (source Futures Sport and Entertainment Brand Health Report December 2022) and rising participation numbers, promising a bright future for our game.

With just 100 days to go until the world unites on our shores for the largest standalone event in women’s sport, there are many achievements to celebrate in the advancement of women’s football in Australia (as represented in the mosaic) and at the same time, an opportunity to reflect on what remains to be carried out.

Since its launch in February 2021, the Legacy ’23 Plan has been instrumental in securing Federal and State funding across the five pillars for Football Australia. Notably, 79 per cent of this has been attributed to the development of elite and tournament infrastructure necessary to make the FIFA Women’s World Cup™ possible.

Despite some progress, FA says it is crucial that the nation addresses much needed improvement in community grassroots facilities. Currently, only 40 per cent of football facilities nationwide are classified as female-friendly, and the figures are even more alarming in NSW, where the number drops to 24 per cent .

Federal Minister for Sport, Anika Wells said: “In 100 days, this World Cup will change lives . . . not just for players, but for fans captivated in stadiums and for the children watching on believing they too can be great.

“The FIFA Women’s World CupTM is crucial to providing opportunities to increase football and sport participation by women and girls and we must work together to ensure this becomes reality. The Government has provided significant financial, operational and policy support to the FIFA Women’s World Cup™ to help promote cultural change through sport and ensure the tournament leaves a positive legacy for decades.”

Football Australia CEO, James Johnson said: “Our Legacy ‘23 Plan has laid the groundwork for Football Australia to leverage the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023TM and to revolutionise the future of women’s football and the way in which women and girls across the country participate in sport. 

“As we strive to become Australia’s first community sport to reach gender parity, we will continue to work collaboratively with Federal and State Governments, and our commercial partners to capitalise on the growth this event will bring to our game and to unlock further opportunities to support the country’s largest club-based participation sport.”

Australia Women’s National Football Team

Football Australia is also currently preparing a bid to host the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026, which is a natural step to expand on the strong platform created by the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023™.

The Last-Minute Sales Phase for the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023™ will begin today, with tickets on sale from 12noon AEST, 2pm NZT, and 4am CEST at on www.FIFA.com/tickets.

The Last-Minute Sales Phase will run until the end of the tournament, giving fans a chance to purchase tickets and be part of the world’s largest standalone sporting event for women. Tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis and subject to availability.
