Overview

HSBC Sydney 7s is returning for another year from Saturday, February 1 to Sunday, February 2, taking over the Bankwest Stadium in Parramatta for the first time. The two-day party weekend spans heaps of high-energy rugby matches, a live music lineup and fancy dress aplenty.

As always, 28 of the world's best international men's and women's rugby sevens teams will go head-to-head to be crowned the tournament champions. The tournament will also feature its very own music festival, with a stage set to host live acts across the weekend.

At the Festival Stage, you'll catch headliners LDRU, DJ Tigerlily and Yolanda Be Cool, plus heaps of supporting acts. DJ Tigerlily will be bringing the good times in spades as will Sydney mainstay DJ duo Yolanda Be Cool — you know, the ones who did 'We Know Speak No Americano'. Topping it all off, ARIA-nominated DJ and producer LDRU will be pumping out dance and electro tunes, including his hits 'Keeping Score' and 'Tropics'. So, expect a party at this rugby match.

Plus, one of the best aspects of heading to a Rugby 7s day is the chance to don a silly outfit. There's no theme this time round, so use it as an opportunity to show off as much team pride as you can muster. There'll also be a bunch of giveaways up for grabs. Round up your mates, start planning your get-ups and get prepared for a full on weekend of festivities.

Single day passes start at $50 and weekend passes at $95. Both include entry into the stadium and festival area. Plus, you'll get free train travel to and from the stadium all weekend — just show your ticket at the barrier. To purchase tickets, head this way
