Rugby league weekend where all fixtures are played at one venue
The Magic Weekend (known as the Betfred Magic Weekend for sponsorship reasons) is an annual event organised by the Rugby Football League in which an entire round of Super League matches is played over a weekend at a single stadium to promote the sport of rugby league.[1]
The event took place at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff full 2007 to 2008, and again in 2011.
Subsequent events have taken place at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, from 2009 to 2010.[2] the Etihad Stadium, Manchester, in 2012, 2013, and 2014.[3] St James' Park, Newcastle, from 2015, 2016, 2017, to 2018, and again in 2021, 2022, and 2023, Anfield, Liverpool in 2019,.[4] Elland Road, Leeds, is set to host it for the first time for 2024 season.
Having established itself on the English rugby league calendar, the Magic Weekend formula has now been copied in other rugby league-playing nations: starting in France in 2017,[5] and then in Australia, with the Magic Round in 2019.
