It's match week! We're excited to return to Myreside on Friday night for our first home game of the new Guinness PRO14 season against the Dragons (kick-off 7.35pm).
Following our six-week trial last season, we've been working hard to improve the facilities and the overall matchday experience at Myreside. Here are just a few things you can look forward to this weekend...
BRAND NEW FACILITIES
New and improved toilet facilities are located in the North-East corner and behind the South Stand - all properly plumbed and lit with running water. There’s also a brand-new toilet facility for our disabled spectators located next to the disabled area on the East side of the ground, and another is situated across the road next to the supporters’ bar.
THE HUXLEY CLUBHOUSE
The supporters’ bar will be hosted and operated in partnership with national pub group, Signature Pubs, who are using their expertise in running some of the city’s finest establishments to deliver a greater match night experience at Myreside. The enhanced experience will also see the supporters’ marquee refurnished, with Signature Pubs offering food and drink from their establishments at the home of the capital club.
THE QUICK TAP
Beat the match night queues and visit The Quick Tap, situated right behind the South Stand. Our state-of-the-art bar can pour a range of drinks on draught including Tennents Lager, Caledonia Best and Guinness.
THE BIG SCREEN
The big screen has moved! It’s now situated in the North-West corner, which is visible from all areas of the ground. Keep an eye out for our latest news and videos throughout the evening.
THE MACRON STORE
Our brand-new matchday Macron store, stationed next to the Actavo Stand and behind the big screen, means that supporters can get their hands on a fantastic 2017/18 range of merchandise before, during and after the match! Grab a new shirt, scarf or hoodie to show your support. Our players will be along helping at the store too, so drop by and say hello…

Join us in The Huxley Clubhouse
Our new look supporters bar will now feature delicious food from The Huxley, as well as entertainment pre and post-match!
Pre-match, children can sign up for Nerf wars at the supporters bar, while parents enjoy food and drink inside – this will run from 6.00pm – 7.00pm.
Players will join fans in the clubhouse at 6.30pm for the pre-match Q&A.
Post-match, there will be a Q&A from a player straight off the pitch, with further players joining throughout the evening. Make sure to come back after the game to get a selfie with your favourite Edinburgh player!
Park & Ride Service from BT Murrayfield
Getting to the game has never been easier. Park and Ride services from BT Murrayfield have resumed this season, and will run every 10 minutes between 6pm and 7pm.
The Park & Ride service will cost supporters just £5 per car, and those wishing to walk to BT Murrayfield and use the Walk & Ride service will pay only £3 per passenger - cheaper than a return ticket on public transport. Under-18s will also travel free of charge on the Walk & Ride service!
Please note that the deadline for booking is Friday at 9am and there will be no cash sales available on the night. Book your travel for Friday's game now at edinburghrugby.org.
