Join us to mark the 100th anniversary of the home of Scottish rugby – Murrayfield Stadium.
In 1925, Scotland played their first ever game at Murrayfield Stadium. They opened their new home with a landmark result, defeating England for the Grand Slam. This was the first in a long line of epic encounters that would take place on that hallowed turf over the next century.
In this event, Peter Burns and Rob Robertson share some of the most memorable, significant and sometimes quirky fixtures that have been played at Murrayfield over the past 100 years. This will be an insightful, fun and fascinating account of some of the greatest moments in Scottish rugby.
