The Tour de France Grand Départ Trophy

Extending the French flavour to match night, we’re delighted to welcome the team from Scottish Cycling to the Hive Stadium.

Ahead of the biggest cycling event in the world, The Tour de France, starting in Edinburgh on Friday 2nd July 2027, they’re bringing the official Tour de France Grand Départ trophy along.

The trophy has been touring Scotland and now it’s your turn to get your photo taken with it – simply head to the Public Bar in the President’s Suite during the course of the night to see it in all of its glory.

Hive Stadium Fan Zone

As always, there’ll be a wide selection of food and drink in the fan zone, including:

• Stuffed cookies
• Costa Coffee
• Greek food
• The grill
• Coffee and donuts
• Burgers and fries
• Wood-fired pizza
• Hot dogs
• Mexican cuisine

The Edinburgh Event Company will be there with plenty of fun and games, and there’ll be a car setup from Jaecoo too.

Look out for the Penicuik and District Pipe Band, who are back in the fan zone welcoming fans as they arrive, before piping the team onto the pitch.

Pre-Match Light Show

Ball Delivery

Our first European home game of the season will see us wear our 30th anniversary European jersey. It honours three members of Edinburgh’s first professional side from 1996, who all featured in the club’s first ever European match against Bath.

Former captains Scott Hastings and Ally Donaldson both passed away this year, and flanker Graham Dall passed away last year. Each of them will have their initials and heritage number on the 13, 10 and 7 jerseys.

To mark the occasion, Scott’s brother Gavin Hastings (#854) and Ally’s daughter Katie Donaldson will deliver the match ball ahead of kick-off. Make sure you give them a warm Edinburgh welcome!

The Team of ‘96

At half-time, we’ll welcome the team of 1996 onto the pitch. Make sure you show your support for the trailblazers of our first ever European side, and stick around to hear from them in a half-time Q&A.

Community Team of the Week

Boroughmuir RFC are our Community Team of the Week. Look out for them taking centre stage at the break in the Scottish Building Society half-time minis!
