Falcons travel to Edinburgh for final friendly
The match will be played at BT Murrayfield with a 7.30pm kick-off, tickets priced from £12 for adults, £8 for senior citizens and £5 for under-18s. To book for this game please call Edinburgh Rugby’s ticket hotline on 0844 335 3933.
The match continues a recent tradition of pre-season friendlies between the two clubs, who last met in Hawick two years ago.
Newcastle Falcons’ director of rugby Dean Richards said: “Edinburgh are a quality outfit and will offer us the kind of test we need a week before we begin the new Aviva Premiership season at home to Sale Sharks on September 2.
“Although this is an away fixture the distance between the two cities should allow a good number of our fans to travel up and watch what have always been keenly-contested games.”
