The renewed agreement extends what is already the Premier League's longest-running front-of-shirt sponsorship, continuing a relationship that began in 2006 with the opening of Emirates Stadium.
The deal comes at a landmark moment for Arsenal following the club's recent Premier League title triumph and reinforces Emirates' commitment to one of world football's biggest brands.
Under the new agreement, Emirates will continue to feature on Arsenal's men's, women's and academy teams while retaining the naming rights to Emirates Stadium. The partnership will also continue supporting fan-focused initiatives, including the annual Emirates Cup and the Global Gooners program, which gives international supporters the opportunity to experience matchdays in North London.

Arsenal Chief Executive Richard Garlick described the renewal as a reflection of the shared ambition between the club and the airline.
Emirates President Tim Clark said the partnership has evolved far beyond traditional sponsorship, helping connect millions of Arsenal supporters around the world through unique experiences over the past two decades.
The clubs will officially begin the next chapter of the partnership during this weekend's Emirates Cup, when Arsenal hosts Borussia Dortmund. The celebrations will also mark more than 20 years of collaboration between the Premier League champions and the Dubai-based carrier.
To commemorate the milestone, Arsenal and Emirates have released a cinematic campaign featuring club legend Per Mertesacker, highlighting memorable moments from the Emirates era while looking ahead to the future.
