Basingstoke Bison Welcome Gabardine Bar as New Sponsor


Basingstoke Bison are thrilled to announce that Gabardine Bar has joined our family of sponsors for the upcoming season. Fans will soon see the Gabardine Bar name featured prominently on a rink board at the Bison’s home games.


Located at 27 London Street, Gabardine Bar is a vibrant community venue offering a wide range of food, drinks, and entertainment options. From live music and comedy nights to themed events and poetry open mics, there’s always something happening at the bar. The venue is also available for private hire, catering for events from business meetings to celebrations and parties.


Basingstoke Bison’s Director and Head of Commercial Danny Kimber said "We’re excited to welcome Gabardine Bar as a new sponsor of the Bison. Their commitment to providing great experiences aligns perfectly with our club values. We look forward to working together throughout the season and seeing their brand on a rink board in the rink."


Kevin Nelson, Owner of the Gabardine Bar, said “Supporting local sports teams like the Bison ice hockey team is a great way to be involved in the community. Gabardine Bar, being a local business itself, is contributing to the team's success. The fact that the bar is located in a building with such a rich history, having once been the home of Burberry, adds a unique and fascinating element to its story. Best of luck to the Bison for a successful season!”
