This year, there is added incentive for teams with Olympic qualification on the line and we anticipate a scintillating display of fast-paced sevens action as teams look to secure their ticket to Tokyo 2020. Hosted in the world-class National Stadium, fans and players will experience a truly unique and electric atmosphere. We are looking forward once again to welcoming teams to the Singapore Sevens.”

Adam Firth, Chief Commercial Officer, Singapore Sports Hub, said: “This is the fourth year that the HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens will be hosted here at the National Stadium and the event has grown year-on-year to become one of Singapore’s special annual events, delivering great value-for-money by packing a full weekend of top class entertainment into the ticket price. There is something for everyone, a party for the whole family, and this year we will continue to support the on-field rugby action with off-field activities and entertainment that I am sure will captivate people of all ages.”

The HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens won Best Sports Event of the Year (International) at the 2018 Singapore Sports Awards, for the event held the previous year in 2017.

Last year’s event was lauded for its family-friendly design, where it wowed rugby fans and visitors of all ages, with its suite of fringe activities that focused on children’s entertainment. Adults had their fair share of fun, too, with entertainment acts headlined by a rousing performance from 70s disco legends, Village People, as well as delectable treats from the Makan Hub, made for a feast for fans and their families.

Building on the excitement and merriment from the 2018 event, fans, families and youth can expect yet another year of thrilling experience on top of the on-field action from the world’s best rugby sevens players.

Tony Cripps, CEO of HSBC Singapore, said: “HSBC is a long-term global sponsor of rugby and we are proud to continue our title sponsorship of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series here in Singapore. The rugby sevens offers an opportunity to connect with customers and colleagues in the communities in which we serve. It aligns with our global ambition of developing key relationships, building loyalty, nurturing youth and embracing different cultures. Together with our event partners, we are committed to creating an enjoyable carnival atmosphere for everyone this April.”

Galastein Tan, Head, Event and Fan Development, Sport Singapore, said: “Rugby sevens is one of the most entertaining, fast-paced sports around and three years on, it is no surprise that it is now an event that both rugby and non-rugby fans look forward to each year. The National Stadium is going to be an exciting carnival and I encourage families to join us and enjoy a weekend of sporting spectacle together.

Jean Ng, Director, Sports, Singapore Tourism Board, said: “The HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens promises a fun-filled experience for the whole family that goes beyond the world-class sporting action. We are happy to once again support this event that will showcase Singapore as a vibrant and attractive destination with leisure offerings that appeal to everyone.”
