Statement from Stephen Vaughan, Wasps Group CEO

Ricoh Arena can confirm that in light of Coventry being placed into Tier 3 of Covid restrictions, the venue will continue to only operate events that have been approved by government.

Stephen Vaughan, Wasps Group CEO, said: “Whilst we are keen to welcome back conference and exhibition delegates, sports fans and concert-goers through our doors, the welfare of the general public must come first.

“As a venue we have dedicated a great deal of attention and time to ensure events with crowds can be delivered in a Covid-secure manner, so that when the time comes for us to re-open the doors to the general public, we will be ready.”
