In 2025, the Penrith Panthers are set to experience a unique season. This is due to the major refurbishment of BlueBet Stadium. As a result, the Penrith Panthers will host their home games at CommBank Stadium in Parramatta. This will help to ensure that local fans still have access to live matches nearby.
The Reason Behind the Venue Change
BlueBet Stadium is undergoing a major renovation. Upgrades include covered seating, modern corporate areas, and enhanced fan amenities. These upgrades will also accommodate a women’s NRL team.
The Panthers are making these changes to improve fan experience and enhance team facilities. The renovation is set to start right after the 2024 season and aims to be finished by the beginning of the 2026 season.
2025 Home Games Overview
In 2025, the Panthers will play at CommBank Stadium and in regional centres. They plan to host a game in Mudgee under a new two-year deal that includes community activities like a Rugby League Clinic.
The Panthers have also added an exciting game in Las Vegas to their schedule. This marks a major step towards expanding the NRL’s international presence.
About CommBank Stadium
CommBank Stadium seats 30,000 people and offers fans a close view of the action. With top amenities, modern design, and cutting-edge technology, it sets a high standard for stadium experiences. The Panthers will bring their colours and passionate fan culture to this temporary home.
To make the most of the move, the club is introducing fan-friendly initiatives. Members can expect premium seating options, convenient travel arrangements, exciting game-day activities, and improved corporate services — all designed to make the transition as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
Key Matches and Season Highlights
The season will kick off with a historic match in Las Vegas, with the Panthers facing the Cronulla Sharks. During the season, the Panthers will play several important games at their temporary home in Parramatta. This includes a key game against the Melbourne Storm, who were finalists last season. This match is expected to be one of the highlights of the season.
Return to Penrith in 2026
For the 2026 season, the Panthers are set to return to their revamped stadium. The upgraded facility will enhance the game day experience. It will also provide a state-of-the-art venue that aligns with the Panthers’ future goals in the NRL.
The 2025 season is a time of change and new opportunities for the Penrith Panthers. As their home ground is being upgraded, they will play at different venues. This keeps the games accessible to fans and helps the team reach more people both in Australia and globally.
