2025 Rugby Festival

On behalf of HSBC, Dubai Exiles RFC, Dubai Hurricanes RFC and all the Festival sponsors we look forward to hosting the 2024 rugby festival and welcoming all visiting clubs, teams, players, volunteers, team officials, parents, guardians and spectators to The Sevens Stadium in Dubai on January 25th and 26th, 2025.

The 2024 Festival saw almost 250 teams and nearly 3,500 players participate in 636 games across the two days as they competed for 67 Trophies. A sensational effort and some great rugby on display which we hope to replicate at the 2025 event.

Further information on the Festival will be updated on this website as it becomes available. Please check back on a regular basis.
