Magic Weekend will celebrate its 18th birthday in 2025, and will return to the first May Bank Holiday, just as when it was launched in Cardiff in 2007 as a trailblazing concept for Rugby League and for British sport.
It will be the 10th anniversary of Super League's first Magic Weekend in Newcastle in 2015, and the eighth time in the subsequent decade that Rugby League has staged its unique festival at the home of Newcastle United.
The 2025 line-up, determined as usual by the league placings, includes a repeat of the 2024 Betfred Challenge Cup Final between Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves as the Sunday afternoon centrepiece - and a first ever Magic staging of the classic Super League rivalry between St Helens and Leeds Rhinos on Saturday night.
Wakefield Trinity will mark their return to Magic after a one-year absence from Super League with a match against their local rivals Castleford Tigers to round off the weekend on Sunday evening, and the action will kick off with two fixtures to revive memories of famous Million Pound Matches of the past - Leigh Leopards versus Catalans Dragons, and Hull KR against Salford Red Devils.
Sunday'ss programme will kick off with Huddersfield Giants defending their impressive Magic Weekend record against a Hull FC team who will be desperate to bounce back after consecutive Magic defeats against Castleford and London Broncos.
Each of the 12 clubs has already been allocated an end of St. James' Park.
Leigh Leopards, Hull KR and St Helens will be at the Gallowgate End on Saturday, with Catalans Dragons, Salford Red Devils and Leeds Rhinos at The Leazes.
On Sunday, Hull FC, Wigan Warriors and Wakefield Trinity are at the Leazes End, with Huddersfield Giants, Warrington Wolves and Castleford Tigers at the Gallowgate.
Rhodri Jones, Rugby League Commercial Managing Director, said: "We're excited to confirm this return to St. James' Park and the city of Newcastle for the 18th Super League Magic Weekend in 2025.
"The feedback from our fans regarding a return to the North East has been overwhelmingly positive, and we have worked with Newcastle United and Newcastle City Council to identify the May Bank Holiday weekend as the ideal slot.
"The players of Super League have produced so many thrilling matches and moments in the decade since Magic Weekend was first played at St. James', and we look forward to more in 2025."
Darren Eales, Newcastle United's CEO, said: "We are delighted to be hosting Magic Weekend at St. James' Park once again.
"The stadium and city have proven to be incredibly popular across previous Magic Weekend events, with fans of Super League clubs being joined by many more who are new to the sport.
"Together with our city partners, we look forward to welcoming the rugby league community back to the North East for an unforgettable weekend."
Tickets start from £30 for one day, and £45 for the weekend, at Category 3, increasing to £45 and £65 for Category 2, £55 and £80 for Category 1, and £75 and £110 for Platinum - meaning fantastic value on offer for anyone taking advantage of the discounts for season ticket holders or early purchases.
