Twickenham Stadium, London, England

Twickenham Stadium, located in the Twickenham district of the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, is the third largest stadium in the United Kingdom with a capacity of 75,000, bettered only by Old Trafford Football Stadium and, when it eventually opens in 2007, the new Wembley Stadium.

The South Stand is currently being redeveloped to increase capacity to 82,000. The stadium is the home of England’s Rugby Football Union, and as such primarily a venue for rugby union and hosts England’s home test matches. Stadium tours are available and there is a Museum of Rugby at the ground.
