The kick-off times for the 2024 Magic Weekend round have been confirmed. The Super League will take the event to Elland Road, the home of Leeds United Football Club, for the first time, with six fixtures taking place.

The 2024 event is the 17th year of the concept, which began at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in 2007. Four other venues have also been used since, with Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium, Manchester's Etihad Stadium, Liverpool's Anfield home, and Newcastle's St James' Park all getting a crack.

This season sees the first shot for Elland Road, which hosted the Challenge Cup semi-finals in 2022. It has also hosted various international events over the years, as well as the World Club Challenge.

This year's concept sees Wigan Warriors and St Helens go head-to-head in one of Super League's biggest derby matches, with Catalans Dragons also meeting Hull KR in another big clash.

It's the Robins' big city rivals, Hull FC, however, who get the 2024 Magic Weekend underway against London Broncos on Saturday 17 August. The game kicks off at 2:30 p.m. Next up, Wigan meet the Saints at 5:00 p.m., with the third game of day one seeing Warrington Wolves take on Leeds Rhinos at 7:30 p.m.

Day two starts with Leigh Leopards against Salford Red Devils, with the action getting underway on Sunday 18 August at 1:30 p.m. The Dragons then take on the Robins at 4:00 pm, before the event finishes with Huddersfield Giants vs Castleford Tigers, with the game scheduled for a 6:30 kick-off.

Tickets for the Magic Weekend go on sale at 12 p.m. this Sunday.
