Hull FC will take on newly-promoted London Broncos at the 2024 Magic Weekend, taking place at Leeds’ Elland Road.

The Black & Whites will take on Mike Eccles’ side in the opening match of the weekend on Saturday 17th August (2.30pm) as the event heads to West Yorkshire for the first time.

FC previously took on the London at Magic Weekend back at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield in 2010, as the Broncos return to the event for the first time in five years.

Hull will look to make it three wins on the bounce at the event after victories over Hull KR (2022) and Warrington Wolves (2023) at Newcastle’s St James’ Park over the past two seasons.

Leeds will be the sixth city to host the event, which enters its 17th season in 2024.

The home of Leeds United has played host to several major rugby league events in recent years, including last year’s thrilling World Cup Semi-Final between Australia and New Zealand; the ground also holds a special place in the heart of Hull FC fans as the location of the Black & Whites iconic 1982 Challenge Cup Final Replay victory over Widnes, as well as the club’s semi-final victory in the competition a year later when James Leuluai scored one of the club’s greatest tries of all-time against Castleford.

Saturday’s action will also feature mouth-watering clashes between Wigan Warriors and St Helens, before Warrington Wolves face Leeds Rhinos.

Tickets

Please enter the stadium via the turnstile indicated on your ticket. The Revive North, South, and East stands are for tickets with unreserved seating. The John Charles West stand will accommodate supporters with reserved seats. Turnstiles will open 60 minutes prior to first kick-off on both Saturday and Sunday.

Reserved Seating

Spectators must ensure that they sit in their allocated seat(s). Although there may be adjacent seats that appear to be empty, it is likely that ticket holder hasn’t yet arrived or is elsewhere in the stadium.

Unreserved Seating

It is important to note that if an unreserved seat is vacated, it may not be possible to return to the same seat at a later time. Certain seats or blocks within unreserved areas of the stadium bowl may be marked as RESERVED (e.g. close to wheelchair platforms and dug outs) and as such are not available to holders of unreserved seat tickets. Spectators should ensure that they do not sit in any seat marked reserved if they have purchased a ticket for an unreserved area.

ID For Concessions

If a concessionary ticket has been purchased, identification may be requested on entry. Holders of such tickets should ensure that they have appropriate ID with them.

Pass Out System

A pass out/return system will be operated on both event days allowing spectators to move freely to and from the stadium bowl – there is no limit on the number of times someone is allowed to pass out and re-enter. Spectators leaving the stadium bowl with the intention of returning may do so but MUST first ensure that they have a hand stamp applied upon initial exit; if there is no evidence of a hand stamp re-entry will not be permitted. Hand stamps will be applied by stadium stewards.

Dedicated exit and re-entry gates in each stand will be used to facilitate this operation. Different coloured hand stamps will be used for each level each day. It is important that match tickets are not discarded; tickets need to be produced for re-entry if using the pass out system. Re-entry to the stadium bowl will be on production of both a hand stamp and relevant match ticket.

Fan Zone

The Fan Zone is located directly outside of the stadium, offering food, beverage, and activities delivered by official partners Loch Lomond Group, Northern, and ABK and others throughout the weekend. Alex Simmons will be hosting the fan zone, keeping the party going with live music and special guest interviews from the stage at the heart of the activity.
