Scotland Women v England 2026: Closing in on crowd record!

5 Aug 2025

After only eight weeks Scotland game against England at Scottish Gas Murrayfield is well on the way to becoming the highest ever home crowd for a Scotland Women home match.

It’s only been eight weeks since it was announced that Scotland’s game against England in the 2026 Guinness Women’s Six Nations is moving from Hive Stadium to Scottish Gas Murrayfield, but already the crowd is the second-highest ever for a home game and well on the way to becoming the highest ever – nine months before the game!

On hearing the news, Scotland captain Rachel Malcom immediately thanked the fans. “What amazing news,” she said. “To know there are so many fans already committed to going to the game next spring is immense! It’s a massive statement about how far the women’s game in Scotland has come.”

Scottish Rugby’s Head of Women’s & Girls Rugby, Gemma Fay is equally effusive: “The response from fans has been absolutely brilliant. We said when we announced the move that we wanted to attract the biggest ever crowd for a standalone women’s sporting event in Scotland, and although there’s a long way to go, we’re chuffed to bits that the crowd is already approaching the equivalent of a sold-out Hive Stadium!”

The introductory ticket offer – discounted ticket price allowing fans to choose to sit anywhere for the same great price: £15 (Adults) £10 (Under-18) £5 (Under-12) – is still in place but will end soon.

“We are running the Best Seat, Best Price offer until we reach the highest ever crowd for a home Scotland Women game,” says Olaf Gueldner, Chief Customer Officer at Scottish Rugby. “Ticket prices will still be very competitive after that, but if you want the discounted prices don’t hang about because we’ve almost reached that highest home crowd target – so go and grab them now!”
