The 1872 Cup will be played on 28 December at Scottish Gas Murrayfield and Edinburgh Trams advise buying tram tickets online to save time on the day.
This is club rugby’s oldest fixture when Edinburgh Rugby square up to Glasgow Warriors. Thousands of fans will use the tram to get to Murrayfield and there are travel deals on offer online.
The Adult Day Tripper offers endless travel for a day between Ingliston Park & Ride and Newhaven for £4.50. And for families there is the Family Day Tripper for two adults and three under 16s to travel for £8.
Becky Love, Edinburgh Trams’ Marketing and Communications Manager, said: “With thousands of customers expected to travel to Murrayfield this weekend, we want to make sure that tram users can benefit from the best-value ticket types – even if they’re supporting Glasgow over Edinburgh! Tram tickets can be bought in advance and printed out or downloaded onto your device before inspection.
“What’s more, booking tickets in advance also means you can take advantage of some great pre-rugby destinations, including Harvey Nichols, Hard Rock Café, or the Johnnie Walker experience on Princes Street for a dram before kick-off. There couldn’t be a better way to enjoy the last weekend of the year!”
On Saturday, Edinburgh Trams will be increasing the service frequency both before and after the game to keep the city moving.
