Australia will play New Zealand in an end-of-season double-header at WIN Stadium on Friday October 25 ahead of an anticipated Test against Tonga a week later.
The announcement of the trans-Tasman Test in Wollongong provides the first glimpse of the code's new international calendar, which is expected to include an Oceania Series and Great Britain Lions tour to New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.
“In the year ending September 2018, South Coast NSW received more than 3.9 million domestic overnight visitors who generated nearly $1.8 billion in visitor spend,” Mr Ward said.
The Trans-Tasman Double Header is supported by the New South Wales Government and Destination New South Wales.
The women’s and men’s matches will be broadcast live nationally across the Nine Network, Fox Sports and NRL Live Pass, as well as Sky NZ in New Zealand.
