Ashton Gate managing director Mark Kelly said that he is “delighted to be able to welcome the Lionesses back to Ashton Gate”.
He said: “It has been incredible to watch the Lionesses’ journey and we’ve followed their success since hosting them here back in 2015.
“During that time, we completed our stadium redevelopment and we’ve been proud to host a number of high-profile international sporting and entertainment acts.”
Kelly added: “I look forward to us playing our part in the Lionesses’ World Cup preparations and hopefully the perfect send-off, in front of what I’m sure will be another record crowd.”
Tickets start from £10 for adults and £5 for concessions and are available now from www.arnoldclarkcup.com.
