Super League champions Hull KR are topping the charts in ticket sales for the 2026 Magic Weekend, as per RL Commercial’s latest figures.

The organisation broke the news on Monday morning that a record number of pre-sale tickets have been sold for next summer’s Magic Weekend, which is set to take place at Everton. A whopping 25,000 tickets have already been claimed—the highest number ever recorded at this stage in the event’s history.

This impressive turnout seems to justify the decision to keep Magic in the calendar despite some clubs’ opposition, and to move it to the Hill Dickinson Stadium following the successful second Ashes Test between England and Australia.

As Christmas approaches, Super League has unveiled the top five out of the 14 Super League clubs leading the ticket sales: unsurprisingly, the Robins are sitting pretty at the top.

Their fans have been showing up in large numbers for both home and away matches since their emergence as a major player in Super League. This trend looks set to continue when Super League takes over Liverpool next year.

They will go head-to-head with Hull KR in a much-anticipated derby, and both clubs currently rank within the top five in terms of ticket sales, with Rovers in first place and FC in fourth.

Snapping at their heels in second place are Matt Peet’s Wigan Warriors – with their opponents at Magic, St Helens, in third place. This is perhaps not surprising given the town’s close proximity to next year’s Magic venue.

And who’s rounding off the top five in ticket sales?

That would be Leigh Leopards, a team that’s recently seen a notable surge in their fan base. Adrian Lam’s squad are gearing up for a clash with Warrington Wolves at the event, and it seems they’ll be backed by a substantial crowd in Liverpool.
