30 days out. 12 players. One city.

Today we launched the Magic Weekend countdown in the only way that felt right - by taking Rugby League to the streets of Liverpool.

From a photocall inside Hill Dickinson Stadium, Everton's stunning new home and the venue that's about to host the biggest weekend in the Betfred Super League calendar; to a Beatles recreation in full kit; a Cavern Club takeover; and interviews overlooking the Liver Building.

National media, influencers, broadcast, print, online - all in a day. Because this year, Magic Weekend is different.

A brand new world-class venue. A global city. And a demand for tickets that has genuinely broken records, over 70,000 already sold, with a full month still to go. Village Street, Trinity Bar, Sunday's Lower Bowl - gone. The fans have spoken before we've even played a ball.

Hull KR v Hull FC. Wigan v Saints. Leeds v Bradford Bulls, a Yorkshire rivalry reborn. Seven fixtures. Two days. Every club has something to prove.

July 4th and 5th. Hill Dickinson Stadium, Liverpool. Magic Weekend 2026.The countdown is on!
