RDS To Be Known As 'Laya-Arena' After Major Rebrand

Tuesday, 25 November 2025 14:38

By Emma O'Connor

The €52 million redevelopment is due to be competed next year.

The RDS is set for a major rebrand - it will be known as the ‘Laya Arena’ when its 52-million euro redevelopment is completed next year.

The revamped venue, including a fully rebuilt Anglesea Stand and grandstand, will hold more than 20-thousand fans.

Leinster Rugby CEO Shane Nolan says the naming deal marks a “hugely significant day” as the province prepares to return to its long-time home, calling Laya’s backing one of the final pieces of the redevelopment puzzle.
