Wanderers' Reebok Stadium will make its international rugby league debut in the autumn.
RL officials today confirmed that the 25,000-capacity Reebok will stage the second of a three-Test series against the touring New Zealanders on November 7.
Impressed by the Reebok's design and location, RL chiefs have now added Wanderers' new home to their list of big game venues.
Great Britain will also break new ground for the Third Test on November 14 with the RL using Watford's 22,000 capacity Vicarage Road stadium instead of Wembley, their traditional southern venue.
The First Test will be at Huddersfield's McAlpine Stadium on October 31. All three games are expected to be under floodlights with 6pm starts.
