Magic WKND 2026 is heading to Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday 5 July, and over 75,000 tickets have already been sold. Super League has drawn a crowd this large before, but the practical challenge now is getting thousands of fans through the doors before a 12:30pm kick-off.
Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday
The game will start at 12:30pm, while all hospitality areas open from 11:00am. General Admission, Village Street and Trinity Place Bar turnstiles also open at 11:00am, giving supporters only a short window to clear the entry points before play begins.
The ticket office sits in the South East corner and opens at 9:30am on both days. That gives early arrivals a fixed place to sort ticket issues before the main rush builds later in the morning.
Sandhills Station and the shuttle
A shuttle service will run from 10:30am until an hour after the last match on both days. The pre-match pick-up point is at the junction of Bankhall Lane and Sandhills Lane near Sandhills Station, and the post-match pick-up point is on the opposite side of Boundary Street to the pre-match drop-off, just before Fulton Street.
Hill Dickinson Stadium has 279 places for wheelchair users, each with a personal assistant or companion seat. That gives accessible ticket holders a defined arrangement rather than a general admission scramble, and it sits alongside the same entry schedule faced by everyone else.
Bag checks at Magic WKND
Each person can bring one small bag into the stadium, and it must not be bigger than A4 size, which means 297mm by 210mm. Children 14 years and under must be accompanied by an adult, so families need to plan for both the bag limit and the entry rule before they travel.
The guide follows a sold-out Ashes tour in Liverpool last November, when Rugby League took the city by storm. This time the pressure is different: the demand is already obvious from the ticket count, and the arrival times, bag policy and shuttle points are the details that decide how smoothly the day starts for supporters heading to Everton.
