Bradford Bulls and Leigh Leopards will face off in Las Vegas on 27 Feb 2027, joining four NRL clubs for a full day of rugby at Allegiant Stadium. The match will air live on Sky Sports, marking the third consecutive year Super League teams have staged a game in Sin City. The event underscores the growing US appetite for the sport.

Bradford’s return to the top flight after an 11‑year exile fuels the story. Director‑owner Philip Sharp said the club sees the Vegas outing as a chance to showcase its passionate fan base and hometown identity to a global audience. Leigh, led by owner Derek Beaumont, shares the sentiment, eager to raise the town’s profile.

The match follows a successful 2024 Las Vegas round where NRL fixtures drew 40,000 fans, and a 2025 Super League clash that saw Wigan Warriors beat Warrington Wolves before 45,000 spectators. With Sky Sports broadcasting every game, the 2027 fixture promises high‑profile exposure for both clubs and a test of their resilience on foreign soil.

Allegiant Stadium, a 65,000‑seat venue that hosted the Chiefs’ 2024 Super Bowl victory, will host the event. The game adds to the growing trend of rugby league’s US expansion, positioning Bradford and Leigh as ambassadors for the sport. Their participation signals confidence in the league’s international ambitions and delivers a definitive statement about the future of Super League abroad.
