Ashton Gate, Bristol

Capacity: 26,387

 

A stadium reborn in a city that needs to be part of your 2025 checklist. Ashton Gate is regularly heaving whether for Bristol Bears or Bristol City Football Club, and recently underwent major renovations across three of their four stands.

Selected as the venue for both semi-finals in 2025, Ashton Gate was chosen with good reason. Boasting the highest attendance for a women’s rugby game in the country outside of Twickenham, the stadium has also packed in a sell-out crowd for England’s football Lionesses. And it has World Cup pedigree, having hosted a New Zealand victory over Tonga back in 1999.

It's a place Bristol Bears and England international Lark Atkin-Davies has spent a lot of time, and she simply can’t wait for the world to see it. “The noise and the atmosphere does go to another level…to have my home stadium confirmed as a World Cup quarter-final and semi-final venue next year is going to be incredible.”

Central to the closing stages of the 2025 Women’s Rugby World Cup, Ashton Gate and the city of Bristol have something to offer the young, the old, the history lovers and the ones with curiosity.
