2025 Cathay/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens – What You Need To Know
The 2025 Cathay/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens will take place from 28 – 30 March 2025 and for the first time will likely be heading to Kai Tak Sports Park.
Hong Kong China Rugby confirmed the dates as part of the announcements by World Rugby for the new HSBC SVNS 2025 season – with Dubai, Cape Town, Perth and Vancouver all named as host cities and the second batch to be confirmed.
HKCR Chairman Chris Brooke said, “The iconic Cathay/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens is a fan-favourite on the HSBC SVNS Series. Thanks to World Rugby for yet again confirming Hong Kong as an integral part of the SVNS success story.”
The HKCR recognised that the news will allow international fans to have plenty of lead time to plan their trips and book flights and accommodation.
New HKCR CEO James Farndon who will be involved in his leadership role at the union for the first time at the Sevens in Hong Kong, added: “About 30% of our ticket holders in 2024 travelled from overseas. It would be great to build on the undoubted international attraction of the HK7s as a ‘bucket list’ event and to showcase our great city to people from all over the world.”
CEO James Farndon added, “It is our wish to stage the 2025 Sevens at Kai Tak Sports Park (KTSP), and we are working very closely with the KTSP team to make that happen. Once we are able to provide more details we will do so.”
