10K for STAG DAY! It’s back and this time it’s bigger than ever! Southland vs Otago - the 250th ‘Stag Day’ marking the 250th clash between Southland and Otago in one of New Zealand rugby’s longest-standing provincial rivalries. It’s mate vs mate in the biggest game on the NPC calendar.
This is more than just a game – it’s the must-attend event of the year, packed with giveaways, atmosphere, entertainment, and the legendary Undie 500. Be counted as part of 10K for Stag Day, enjoy the spectacle, and ROAR and support our SBS Bank Southland Stags!
Traffic control will be in place so plan ahead getting to the Stadium.
All SBS Bank Southland Stags home games are General Admission. This means you you can stand on the terraces, sit on the embankment with the family or park up in the grandstand (in a seat that isn't allocated for a season member OR team partners).
