Buy Your 2024 Hong Kong Sevens Tickets Now!

The tournament as always is expected to be a sell out. You can buy tickets through Klook.com, an Official Supplier and Package Provider for the Hong Kong Sevens now.

The Hong Kong Rugby Sevens is the territory's premier sports event in the annual calendar.

The tournament runs from Friday to Sunday drawing crowds of local and overseas fans alike.

More than the sports match, this has become a festival of sorts and just one huge wild party that goes beyond the Hong Kong Stadium, the official venue of the tournament.

Last year, for the first time, we had the men's and women's teams competing side by side in an HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series event and this year we will again welcome top men's and women's teams from around the globe.

Party tents and big screens for viewing spring throughout Wanchai and Central during the tournament, with a host of other parties and entertainment, carnivals and parades prior, during and after the event.

The main Rugby Sevens Fan Zones are normally set up at the Central Harbourfront and Lee Gardens in Causeway Bay, the HSBC Sevens Village accross from Hong Kong Stadium, and of course Lan Kwai Fong is party central as usual and is the official Hong Kong 7s after party every day during the tournament after the matches. See below for this year's Sevens parties, parades, carnivals, etc. Here's what's happening in 2024:

When securing your tickets consider this (as per the official site):

The North Stand is for people keen to get a closer look at the players, follow every second of the action and maybe even sit with the famous Fijian fans in light blue.
The East Stand, especially right at the top, is ideal for some semblance of peace and quiet - especially popular on Sunday mornings if you're nursing a heavy head.
The South Stand is notorious for its fun, games and debauchery. It's the iconic, wild side that may spring to mind when you think "HK7s" but actually only makes up a quarter of the stands.
The West Stand is for hardcore rugby fans, filling game scores in newspapers and actually watching the rugby.

Some Basics about Rugby and Rugby Sevens

Rugby is much like football, the sport is wildly popular in England and the Commowealth States, including Australia and New Zealand, from which it has spread to the Pacific Islands. In fact, rugby is considered the National sport in New Zealand.

Rugby Sevens is a variation of Rugby Union. The teams consist of seven players instead of 15 players that participate in regular matches.

The games are quick consisting of two seven-minute halves, so basically one match is done in 15 minutes and entire tournaments can be played over a weekend.

Another landmark in the popularity of the sport was Rugby Sevens' debut at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

There are two main tournaments in Rugby Sevens: The World Cup and the World Series.

In the annual Sevens World Series, national teams compete in a circuit of 10 rounds, one of which is played in Hong Kong which is known as the Hong Kong Sevens.

The Hong Kong Rugby Sevens has helped the sport in becoming quite popular accross Asia and is one of the most predominant legs in the World Series circuit which spans all five continents. In fact, the Hong Kong Sevens is the highlight event on the HSBC World Sevens Series calendar where players also battle it out for a place at the Olympics.
