Playing on after November 2022’s pandemic-restricted tournament, a full complement of tickets – around 38,000 after stadium configurations, will be sold for this year’s Hong Kong Sevens scheduled to take place from 31 March to 2 April 2023.
It is the first time since 2019 that the event, widely regarded as the best rugby sevens party in the world, will be held without stadium social distancing caps or food and beverage service constraints.

Prices remain frozen at 2019 levels, with a three-day event pass costing HK$1,950 for adults and a three-day event pass for children 12 and under priced at HK$950.
“We are delighted to be able to host the Hong Kong Sevens without the capacity and food and beverage limits of last November,” said Robbie McRobbie, Hong Kong Rugby Union Chief Executive. “In addition to hosting a larger tournament than just a few months ago – with 26 teams instead of 16 and over 70 world-class matches, we are also welcoming the return of unfettered access to food and drink inside the stadium and greater international travel options into the city for our patrons. We look forward to offering the traditional three-day line-up of entertainment, with the many bands and performances over the weekend that makes the Sevens one of Hong Kong’s best entertainment values.”
Members of local rugby clubs and HKRU patrons have already purchased over 18,500 tickets – an increase in demand already from November, via the exclusive sales period offered to the game’s key stakeholders.
Hundreds of more tickets are reserved for participating teams, World Rugby and the event’s international travel and ticketing partners.
All tickets are sold on a first come, first served basis and while supplies last. Over 27,000 spectators purchased tickets in November 2022.
