Edinburgh Rugby return to action at Hive Stadium on Saturday 16 December (kick-off 1pm), taking on French Top 14 side Castres Olympqiue in an unmissable EPCR Challenge Cup clash in the capital.
Burgh fans can look forward to a Christmas cracker against the formidable French side – defeated by Edinburgh home and away in last year’s Champions Cup competition – and currently sharing the summit of the French top-flight with Stade Francais and Racing 92.
Hive Stadium will also host the latest of the club’s themed fixtures, as ‘Festive Fun Day’ jingles into action, one week before Christmas – so get ready to don your Santa hats and sing along to some festive classics!
We’ll also have our annual present drop-off, giving supporters the opportunity to donate gifts to the Royal Hospital for Children and Young People.
