All hospitality packages for Headingley Stadium, in Leeds, have also sold out.

Tickets and hospitality for the first and second Tests at Wembley Stadium and the new Everton Stadium are also selling at an unprecedented rate, with Everton selling out of Category One tickets on day one of the 12-day priority window.

Tickets for the first Ashes series in 22 years go on general sale on Monday April 14.

Rhodri Jones, the Managing Director of Rugby League Commercial, said: “These are unprecedented and exciting figures for Rugby League – easily the most tickets that have been sold for any series in a single day.

“It confirms the huge demand to see Shaun Wane’s England team taking on Mal Meninga’s Kangaroos this autumn, in the first Ashes series since 2003.

“We believe our choice of venues has captured the imagination of rugby league and sports fans in all parts of the country, and even overseas.

“We have set ambitious goals to ensure the series is played in front of the audiences it deserves – and we are already well on course to meet those goals.”

Tickets will remain available only to the 50,000 pre-registered fans, who had purchased a ticket for an England Test in the previous 10 years, until April 14.
