Super League Magic Weekend is set to return to the Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool next July. The 19th edition of this unique event, which features an entire round of Super League fixtures played over two days, will take place on July 4 and 5, with all matches live on Sky Sports.
Last month's Ashes Test at Everton's new home made history as a sell-out crowd of 52,106 attended the match, marking the first non-football event to be held there. The stadium's success is expected to make it an ideal venue for Magic Weekend, which will feature some exciting matches and rivalries.
On Saturday, July 4, Huddersfield Giants will face York Knights, followed by a high-stakes clash between Hull KR and Hull FC, one of the fiercest local derbies in the Super League. The evening will conclude with Leigh Leopards taking on Warrington Wolves.
Sunday's schedule gets underway with Wakefield Trinity facing Castleford Tigers, setting the stage for another thrilling day of rugby league action. Leeds Rhinos will then take on Bradford Bulls, one of the biggest rivalries in the competition, before the weekend's main event: a blockbuster showdown between Wigan Warriors and St Helens.

This Magic Weekend thing sounds like a cover for something bigger. I mean, who needs two whole days of rugby league when you've got a sell-out crowd at the Ashes Test? 
It's just too convenient that they're bringing it back to Liverpool next year... what's really going on behind the scenes? Maybe it's a secret hub for top-secret sports experiments 
. And have you noticed how every big event is suddenly taking place at stadiums with weirdly impressive capacities? It's almost like they're testing the water for something bigger, like a new sport or something... 
I'm onto it, folks! 
But the cost is a big barrier for me, I'm not sure if it'll be worth it. On top of that, the fact that they're choosing the same venue as last year's Ashes Test raises questions about sustainability and whether they're doing enough to support local businesses...
. I mean, who doesn't love a good rugby league match, right? And having it at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool sounds like an awesome idea - it's got that big stadium feel to it, you know? The Ashes Test at Everton's new home was crazy last month, so it'll be interesting to see how many people turn up for Magic Weekend. I'm a bit surprised they're doing two days of matches though, it might get a bit overwhelming for some fans 
️ i'm particularly hyped for the Wigan vs St Helens clash on Sunday - it's gonna be a real barnburner! 
anyone else got their tickets yet?
with all those matches and rivalries 
️. i'm especially hyped about the blockbuster showdown between wigan warriors and st helens 
. can't wait to see the hawthornes take on the dragons 
. and yeah, the fact that it's gonna be at the hill dickinson stadium in liverpool is a major win 
. i'm all about trying new things and experiencing different vibes 
The rivalry between Hull KR and Hull FC is always intense, but it's also what makes their matches so thrilling to watch! So yeah, this Magic Weekend is going to be EPIC! 
. but what's up with no dates released for the france leg yet? u would think they'd have somethin planned by now 
was so busy with stuff and now its like 2 days away lol. anyway, super league matches are always such a blast to watch live 
the hill dickinson stadium is supposed to be awesome i mean, that ashies test match at everton sold out and all... makes sense it would be perfect for magic weekend 
Magic Weekend is going to be lit
