Magic Round (NRL)
open-in-new
<p>The <a href="/facts/National_Rugby_League/RGNa04lC">National Rugby League</a>'s Magic Round is a weekend in which all fixtures are played at one venue in Australia. The concept is derived from <a href="/facts/Super_League/SxKRInqj">Super League</a>'s <a href="/facts/Magic_Weekend/gfA0mvTU">Magic Weekend</a>. The first Magic Round, in <a href="/facts/2019_NRL_season/z6IosB4K">2019</a>, was held at <a href="/facts/Brisbane/DdUE1VPW">Brisbane</a>'s <a href="/facts/Lang_Park/ISpW8S0s">Lang Park</a>, in the ninth round of the season, from 9 to 12 May. The <a href="/facts/Government_of_Queensland/zk1aH1XD">Government of Queensland</a> paid approximately $2.1 million per year for the event to be held in the city in 2019 and 2020. </p>
