Samsung Provides Fans With New Viewing Experience

Samsung Electronics UK will be offering rugby fans the chance to get closer to the action at Twickenham Stadium on the 21^st and 22^nd May, with the launch of the Samsung Slider at the HSBC London Sevens.

A UK first, the Samsung Slider is a state of the art four-person mobile seating unit that offers a new way for fans to enjoy the match. Travelling up and down the pitch from try line to try line on an 80m custom built track, the Slider will reach speeds of up to 20mph to ensure that those lucky enough to be riding it will never miss a moment of the game.

Samsung will be providing multiple opportunities for fans and customers to experience the best seats in the stadium both in the lead up to the event and at Twickenham across the weekend through its social media channels and at  www.samsung.com/uk/offer/samsungslider/

The Samsung Slider will provide 180 rides across a 45 match schedule at Twickenham Stadium over the full tournament weekend.

Russell Taylor, vice president – marketing, Samsung Electronics UK and Ireland, commented: “To showcase the innovative Samsung SUHD TVs, a product range that provides a quantum leap in picture quality and an unparalleled viewing experience at home, we’ve brought the Samsung Slider to Twickenham Stadium. We think it’s a brilliant illustration of how we can use technology to create the best viewing experience possible with live sports; allowing fans at the London Sevens to enjoy the game of rugby like never before.”
