The Swire Fijian Drua management hopes to give all its fans a hospitality of a lifetime during the team’s home games during the 2023 Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific competition.
The Fijian Drua in conjunction with the Lautoka City Council, will install additional infrastructure at Churchill Park to accommodate the demand for this.
Fijian Drua head of commercial and marketing Shane Hussein said a second temporary stand woudl go up behind the goalpost on the track which is on the Verona St side of Churchill Park.
“We are going to add more hospitality options and we have done a couple of exciting things,” he said.
“This will be on the track at the Tappoo City side which is on the Narara Pde end.
“Towards the edge we will be building additional corporate hospitality suites. We are very happy to confirm that we have already sold half of them.
“We are building eight suites and four of them have been taken up by our corporate partners. Only four remain on sale for the Lautoka corporate community.”
Hussein said the corporate hospitality booth and suites would be a hit with the first home game at Churchill Park against the Crusaders on March 11 expected to be a sellout.
“At the back of the concrete main grandstand we are demarcating certain sections into groups of 10 seats,” he said.
“Those are what we call open boxes. So they become open hospitality boxes also. You will get 10 seats together and you can get your family and colleagues to sit together.
“There is a starter pack for that. Already there with alcoholic, non alcoholic and kava ready to go as part of that package.
“Suva has a couple of corporate hospitality options which are the existing corporate boxes and then the function we put on before and after the game which is known as the Drua experience at the FMF Gymnasium. For this our fans and the corporate partners will get to hear more about it as we go along this month.
“Our first home match is on March 11 which is the big one against the Crusaders in Lautoka. We expect the hospitality sales to go up very well and it should be flying out for that one.”
