Rugby Week 2026
Time flies when you’re having fun, 2026 see the Hong Kong Sevens turn 50 – yup 50 years of great rugby, hangovers, south stand chaos and of course Sweet Caroline sung by now 50,000+ fans!
The traditional rugby week curtain-raiser Kowloonfest is 21… and yet still feels like a playground social where community and camaraderie are as important as the competitive action on the pitch.
The Hong Kong 10s at the Hong Kong Football Club, celebrates 40 years of proper scrums and brutal power forward play. It’s perhaps the closest we in Hong Kong can get to seeing modern rugby up close and personal. Select teams packed with international big-name talent bring a physicality and rawness to the rugby images seen on television that really needs to be experienced inperson.
Amidst the Sevens partying, a rugby tournament does take place… If we’re being honest last year’s debut at the new 50,000 seater Kai Tak Stadium was distinctly underwhelming. With the South Stand looking empty the whole weekend. The accoustics so bad you could barely hear anyone singing and the concession stands running out of food… It was like the architect had ever been to an event in a stadium.
It’s mid-February and tickets are still available for the Sevens 50th Birthday… Sadly, the endless list of nitpicking stadium rules and ‘innovations’ has sucked the spontaneity and joy from what was the World’s greatest sporting social event.
Can the enshitification be reversed? We can only hope so! Why, because Hongkongers and HKsevens fans around the world have so many amazing memories and life-changing experiences from the Sevens… And we want others to enjoy and experience the magic that is the Hong Kong Sevens.
Here are the dates for your Rugby Week 2026 diary.
