Castleford Tigers are delighted to announce new partnership with Arriva!

This new collaboration includes a unique branded double-decker Tiger bus, which fans will have already spotted travelling in and around the Castleford area proudly displaying the Castleford Tigers brand. Cas fans will get a chance to have their photo taken with the bus on Friday 12th May at the fixture vs Catalans when the bus will be parked up on Wheldon Road ahead of the game. The partnership also includes premium pitch-side advertising and promotion of Arriva in our monthly ROAR magazine.

With a depot just down the road from The Mend-a-hose Jungle, Arriva are currently on the lookout for mechanics in the Castleford area. At Arriva their Engineers keep their buses moving and communities connected, whether that's getting children to school or commuters to work.

A spokesperson for Arriva said “We're delighted to be showing our support for the Castleford Tigers with our very own branded bus. We can't wait to see what the future has in store for the club and how we can develop this partnership even further."

Laura Kirk, Commercial Director of the club commented on the partnership "It’s great to be working with Arriva on this new partnership in 2023 and we’re absolutely delighted with how the new Castleford Tigers bus looks on the roads which will help us drive the Tigers brand further. We’ve already got a little competition going in our family to see how many times we can see it out and about and I’m sure many other fans will be looking for it on the streets too. Arriva have a strong reputation for providing good value with a customer focus and we’re proud to be working alongside them.”
