The Dolphins will call Kayo Stadium home when they enter the NRL in 2023.

The league’s 17th club showed off its stadium in Redcliffe as part of a big announcement on Wednesday where it was revealed the sports streaming platform will be one of the new Queensland team’s biggest supporters.

Veteran coach Wayne Bennett and Queensland State of Origin star Tom Gilbert were in attendance as the first photos of the new-look venue were taken.

Fans will get their first taste of the new-look Kayo Stadium in the Dolphins’ final pre-season game against the Titans on February 19.

The Dolphins will play their first official NRL match at Kayo Stadium when they take on the Raiders in Round 2 on March 11.
