This marks the brand’s first front-of-shirt sponsorship in UK football, following a previous back-of-shirt partnership during the 2024/25 season.
Commenting on the new deal, Marco Trucco, Chief Marketing Officer at Immense Group, stated: “Last season, Mr Vegas had the players’ backs. This year, we’re proud to be front and centre on Sheffield Wednesday’s shirts. We’re deepening our partnership with the club at a time when Mr Vegas is becoming the online casino of choice for many customers.
“We particularly applaud Sheffield Wednesday for partnering with a fully licensed and responsible operator. It’s a decision that reflects the club’s values and ensures fans engage with a trusted, secure platform. We’re excited to bring ‘that Vegas feeling’ to Hillsborough once again, with thrilling promotions and exclusive experiences planned throughout the season.”
Good to know: Initiatives in the previous season included season ticket raffles, VIP experiences and publicity-generating stunts such as a darts challenge between Sheffield Wednesday’s head coach and world champion Michael Smith
The partnership is designed to extend beyond shirt branding, with a continued focus on interactive, fan-facing promotions.
This development follows a broader trend of betting brands maintaining or expanding football sponsorships across the English Football League, including CopyBet, which extended its front-of-shirt partnership with Queens Park Rangers earlier this month.
