Kick-off times and ticket details have been confirmed for the 2024 instalment of Magic Weekend, which has undergone a digital rebrand and will be referred to online as ‘MAGIC WKND’.

Via their website, Super League say that the rebrand of the event ‘reflects how social engagement with supporters has become an integral part of the annual carnival’.

They also say ‘fans can expect a first taste of the competition’s new look for a digital-driven future’.

What those two sentences mean in reality is anybody’s guess, but what is for sure is that tickets for the weekend go on sale this Sunday (January 14).

As confirmed back in November, the 17th instalment of the event will take place at Elland Road on the weekend of August 17 & 18.
