Overview
- RL Commercial confirmed on Sunday that Magic Weekend will return to Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium on the Bank Holiday weekend of May 1–2, 2027.
- Organisers cited a reported record attendance of 82,925 across the 2026 weekend as the main reason for the decision.
- The 2026 staging added live music from Example and Jax Jones and a packed fan zone, which organisers say created a festival atmosphere and drew a younger, broader audience.
- Everton and Liverpool City Council backed the deal and RL Commercial said ticketing and fixture allocations for 2027 will be announced later this year.
- RL Commercial also said Hill Dickinson will be among venues considered to host future Super League Grand Finals once the current Old Trafford agreement ends in October 2027, a development that could reshape where the sport stages its season finale.
