A Leeds Statement read: “Leeds United are delighted to announce a new and expanded partnership with Flamingo Land, who will become the official sleeve partner of the club from the beginning of the 2023/24 season.

The deal represents a landmark, with the Sky Bet Championship permitting official sleeve partners for the first time, during the upcoming campaign.

Flamingo Land returned as an official partner of the club last season, having been academy front of shirt partners for the 2011/12 season.

The new deal will see Flamingo Land branding feature on the sleeve of Leeds United men’s and women’s first teams, along with academy playing kits.

As Yorkshire’s ultimate theme park attraction, with an award winning zoo and luxury resort village, Flamingo Land is the perfect destination for family days out, holidays and short breaks.

Leeds United will work with Flamingo Land to drive brand awareness by executing bespoke partnership activation campaigns, along with providing exclusive fan offers for experiences at both Flamingo Land and Elland Road.”
