Get ready, Blue and Gold fans, the Parramatta Eels are heading to Brisbane and Wagga Wagga for the 2026 NRL and NRLW Magic Rounds.
NRL Magic Round is back at Suncorp Stadium from 15 to 17 May 2026, and the Eels will be right in the thick of it when they host the Melbourne Storm on Saturday, 16 May at 7:30pm.
It will be just the second time that the Eels have hosted a home game at Magic Round, a highlight of the rugby league calendar, and this year’s fixture will replace our traditional Darwin home game.
In NRLW, our team will take centre stage for the 2026 NRLW Magic Round, heading to Wagga Wagga in Round 5 of the women’s season with the Eels taking on the Newcastle Knights in the last game of the round at 4pm on Sunday.
All six women’s games will light up Geohex Park across August 1 and 2, as the NRL and NSW Government continue their commitment to bringing elite rugby league to the regions. Fans can also look forward to a Magic Round fan day, clinics and school visits in the lead-up.
Wagga Wagga holds a special place in Eels history. It’s been home to Blue & Gold stars past and present, including Rachael Pearson, club legend Peter Sterling, and Taneka Todhunter from nearby Dubbo.
Magic Round gives both our NRL and NRLW squads a chance to take their game on the road and play in front of fans, family, and friends, and we can’t wait to see Eels faithful filling the stands.
Members and fans are encouraged to keep an eye out for pre-sale and onsale dates.
Let’s paint Brisbane and Wagga Wagga Blue & Gold in 2026!
