West Ham United Make Footprints In Utah
The US city of Utah will host a unique West Ham United watch-party as fans join in the club’s London derby against Arsenal on Saturday (22nd Feb).
The West Ham Winter Weekender Presented by Essex Mortgage will see up to 250 fans head to the picturesque Weedon Family Ranch at the base of Canyons Village in the Park City Mountains.
Former Hammer, Marlon Harewood will be on hand across the weekend to meet fans and join them to cheer on Graham Potter’s side.
The West Ham Winter Weekender is hosted by Essex Mortgage, the club’s Official US Residential Mortgage Lender, who became the first Official Regional Partner in the US. The pair have previously worked on other activations stateside, with Essex Mortgage featuring prominently throughout last year’s pre-season Sunshine State Tour.
This activation also follows club legends Carlton Cole and Jonathan Spector joining supporters at the Premier League Mornings Live Fan Fest in Chicago last September.
The partnership with Essex Mortgage aims to unify West Ham supporters across the US through a variety of bespoke in-market activations and events, creating a home from home for West Ham United fans, regardless of location.
The event will also raise crucial funds for the West Ham United Foundation, the club’s official charity which is at the forefront of community development, engaging with up to 50,000 every year across east London, Essex and beyond.
