LEGENDS AT YORKSHIRE COUNTY CRICKET CLUB
The Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority have teamed up with the Yorkshire Cricket
Board to offer 50 FREE places at their star-studded event featuring West Indies legends Sir
Viv Richards, Sir Curtly Ambrose, Sir Richie Richardson, and Sir Andy Roberts.
This cricketing extravaganza will honour Yorkshire cricket clubs with a taste of Antigua’s
unique blend of cricket and culture, to celebrate the twin-island nation’s rich cricketing legacy
and its role as a host of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, as well as more exciting
cricketing events throughout the year.
Hosted in the Howard Suite at Headingley on Thursday 25 April, you will be treated to a
drinks reception, followed by a three-course meal, a Q&A hosted by Jonathon Doidge and a
brilliant performance by The Spirited Band featuring Curtly and Richie to finish off a
memorable evening.

The evening promises to be an unforgettable showcase of the twin-island’s cricketing
prowess and vibrant culture against the backdrop of the most successful and passionate
English cricketing county, Yorkshire, where Sir Richie Richardson became the club's first
ever Caribbean player in 1993.
The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup will take place from June 1st – 29th, 2024, where Antigua
and Barbuda will play host to eight exciting matches at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
Cricket legend Sir Richie Richardson invites fans worldwide to experience the tournament,
which he assures will be “Out of this World.”
Known proudly as the ‘Year of Cricket’ for Antigua & Barbuda, the twin island nation also
looks forward to hosting the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL24) from August
28th – October 6th, 2024, introducing the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons. Additionally,
England’s Men’s Cricket will tour the West Indies for a white ball series in November, with
matches expected across Antigua and the Caribbean.
