THE Parramatta Eels will take on the North Queensland Cowboys at Darwin’s TIO Stadium on April 30, 2022, with tickets to go on sale from Friday 10 December.
This includes 1,000 Early Bird tickets available until the allocation is exhausted.
Each year the Eels journey north to bring elite sport to the Northern Territory, and provide an opportunity for interstate fans to follow them and combine the game with a unique Territory experience.
The game is part of a long-running partnership between the Northern Territory Government and the Parramatta Eels, and is delivered by the Northern Territory Major Events Company (NTMEC). NTMEC CEO Tim Watsford said the game is the perfect excuse for anyone wanting to explore the Territory.
“With so many incredible and unique things to see and do, the Territory is typically one of those bucket-list destinations that people dream about visiting,” he said. “For NRL fans, now is the time to make that dream a reality and combine your love of the sport with a truly memorable Territory trip.
“World Heritage National Parks, fishing for a legendary barra in pristine waters, enjoying a heli pub tour, jet-skiing across Darwin Harbour, swimming with crocodiles, scenic flights over tumbling waterfalls or Uluru, camel riding in the Red Centre – this is just the start of what’s possible in the Territory. Combined with the chance to watch your team win, it’s the perfect trip.”
Parramatta Eels captain Clint Gutherson said the team is looking forward to returning to the Territory.
“The countdown is on for the 2022 season, and the team is ready and excited to play in front of our home crowd in Darwin,” he said.
“We really appreciate the local fans who always show up to support us, and we’re certain the atmosphere will be amazing for our big game against the Cowboys.”
