Celebrating the Mayo Wynne Baxter Lounge launch The Mayo Wynne Baxter Lounge sponsorship is a long term deal and is coupled with an increased presence of the now famous lime green branding on the pitch side of the stadium. In recent years the club has narrowly missed out on promotion to the top flight on more than one occasion and we are hoping that we see the Albion in the Premiership from the comfort of the Mayo Wynne Baxter Lounge. Here’s to a great season for the Albion – Seaaagullls!! We have been proud supporters of Brighton and Hove Albion football club for many years and this season is no different, in fact we upped our game and are thrilled to share with you some great news. We are delighted to announce we have taken the naming rights to the American Express Community Stadium’s premium lounge. The new Mayo Wynne Baxter lounge, formally the Bupa lounge, is situated in the West stand and hosts around 500 1901 Club members on match days. It is the stadium’s flagship event space and is used by literally thousands of people from across Sussex who attend events there from weddings and Christmas parties to exhibitions and awards dinners. To celebrate our enhanced sponsorship of the club and the launch of the Mayo Wynne Baxter Lounge, on Wednesday 27th July we invited a few friends of the firm to join us for some drinks to toast the established and growing partnership we have with the club. The doors were 100 opened and bubbly and canapes were served to our guests. We were even lucky enough to have Albion legend Alan Mullery and first team players Steve Sidwell and David Stockdale join us for a game of football – table football. The evening celebrated the long running partnership between MWB and the football club with Paul Barber, Chief Executive of Brighton and Hove Albion FC, expressing his gratitude for our continued support and Chris Randall, Chief Executive of Mayo Wynne Baxter, saying a few words about the pleasure of the two Sussex businesses working together.
