Arsenal Football Club has today confirmed that Legends Global has been appointed as the new Official Caterer of Emirates Stadium.
The multi-year agreement will see Legends Global bring its industry-leading culinary expertise to the club’s north London home from the start of the 2026/27 season, delivering all matchday and non-matchday food and beverage operations, as well as all hospitality experiences.
Kicking off soon, Arsenal supporters can look forward to an enhanced menu offering across the stadium’s main concourse spaces.
There will be a complete reimagination of premium hospitality experiences, and the introduction of a series of exciting new innovations set to roll out across suites and lounges.
Arsenal and Legends Global will continue to develop Emirates Stadium’s non-matchday Meetings and Events (M&E) offering, further strengthening its position as one of London’s most unique and leading conference and events venues.
With a proven track record of working closely with local suppliers, Legends Global will bring the same philosophy to Arsenal, helping to shape the new food offering with its local-first approach, bringing the many flavours of north London’s diverse food scene to supporters at Emirates Stadium.
The 2026 SVB LIVE Conference & Exhibition – focused on elevating the live experience across the sports and entertainment ecosystem – is being hosted at Everton FC’s spectacular new Hill Dickinson Stadium on October 1st and 2nd, with an Opening Night Icebreaker at Liverpool FC’s iconic Anfield Stadium on September 30th.
The Legends Global team will also continue to elevate Arsenal’s established partnership with Michelin-Star Chef Raymond Blanc.
Together, the ambition is to evolve the Emirates Stadium experience through sustainably sourced ingredients, best in class hospitality, cutting-edge innovation and high-quality service.
Backed by its global expertise and network, Legends Global will be investing in the continued training and development of the club’s food, beverage and hospitality teams.
As part of this, leaders from Arsenal’s front and back of house operations will join Legends Global’s culinary teams for a Michelin-level training program, taking service standard to the next level.
Karen Smart, Arsenal Chief Operating Officer, said:
“We’re always looking for ways to improve the experience for everyone who visits our north London home, whether they’re here on matchday or for one of our many events throughout the year. We’re excited to build on our relationship with Legends Global and bring supporters and our community new and enhanced food, hospitality and service.”
Chris Bray, Legends Global’s President, Europe said:
“We are delighted to be working with Arsenal. At Legends Global, our focus is on the supporter experience at the Emirates Stadium. Through investment in technology and genuine food innovation, we want to elevate every touchpoint of the matchday journey.
“This exciting new partnership is a real opportunity for us to build on everything that makes Arsenal who they are, and to create experiences that honour the club’s history while raising the bar for what supporters can expect in the future.”
