Corporate hospitality sales for NFL games - which return to London this weekend - have soared in recent years, according to a Maidstone based firm selling seats at top events.

On Sunday, the Chicago Bears take on the Oakland Raiders as part of the NFL London Games at Premier League side Tottenham Hotspurs' new ground in north London.

The match is televised live on Sky.

And it and other games at Wembley Stadium have proved a big sales hit for Hospitality Finder, which specialises in corporate hospitality at major sporting events.

Since it started selling tickets in 2012 sales have shot up by 2,100% for the sport, with a big shot in the arm in 2016 when Twickenham started hosting games.

Mike Dunderdale, managing director of Hospitality Finder, said: “We introduced NFL to our offerings due to a rise in interest in the game from the British public, and demand from our clients.

"We measure this closely along with new enquiry requests.

“We’ve seen an increase in traffic to our website over the last few years and in turn a rapid increase in orders.

“We have since used these findings with the MLB (Major League Baseball) fixtures which have also come over from across the pond recently.

“As an NFL VIP, people can enjoy access to exclusive hospitality lounges and suites, fine dining facilities or even a private box, as they soak up the atmosphere in first-class style.”
