The Hull derby will be one of the headline fixtures when Magic Weekend returns to St James’ Park over the weekend of July 9 and 10 next year, Rugby League Live can reveal.
It is a mouthwatering line-up with St Helens taking on Wigan Warriors and Leeds Rhinos facing Castleford Tigers in another derby.
League Leaders’ Shield winners Catalans Dragons will lock horns with Warrington Wolves and Super League new boys Toulouse Olympique have a date with Wakefield Trinity.
Huddersfield Giants – Magic Weekend’s most successful side despite losing to Wakefield this year – have been paired with Salford Red Devils.
The event delivered some memorable games this year with Catalans clinching the League Leaders’ Shield thanks to a stunning comeback against Saints and Leeds edging Hull in another golden-point thriller.
Super League has retained the formula that was used in 2019 and 2020, which was ultimately cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Potentially good tie for us. Hopefully if they’re trying to promote expansion with Toulouse then we’ll get a slot other than first on Sunday. But I’m not bothered when we play really just hope a vital 2 points in the bag
