After a tense round of play-offs the final two combatants have been decided, with Saracens taking on Sale Sharks at the home of English rugby, Twickenham Stadium.

For Saracens, this is their second consecutive final after Leicester Tigers won the day last year with a jaw-dropping last-minute drop goal. For Sale Sharks, this is their first shot at victory in 17 years, having not reached the final since 2006.

It’s been a gripping season of rugby this year with stand-out moments including Christ Tshiunza’s 84th minute try against Harlequins and England captain Owen Farrell’s stand-out performance against Gloucester.

Now, Farrell is taking on England teammate and childhood friend George Ford in a match of north vs south, sharks vs wolves, and there's still time for you to get a seat in the stands.

So, we've put together this maul-vellous guide on how to get tickets to the Gallagher Premiership final ahead of the weekend. We’ve also included some information about women’s final for the Allianz Premier 15's league, which is set for June. If you miss out, you deserve a spot in the sin bin!

It’s worth noting that it has also been a difficult year for English rugby, with financial struggles for both the historic Worcester Warriors and former champions Wasps. So, it’s more important than ever to get out and support your local rugby club. Without further ado, here's what you need to know.

When and where is the Gallagher Premiership rugby final?

Twickenham
Virgin Experience Days

The rugby season ends every year in May with the Gallagher Premiership final hosted at Twickenham stadium. Here’s the official date and venue for the final:

The event is held in front of a crowd of 82,000 fans and is an all-round event, complete with food and drink (although it’s pretty pricey), plus some all-star half-time entertainment – last year was Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

To get there, you can get to Twickenham Rail Station via Southwestern Rail, which is accessible from London stops like Waterloo. Or, you can take the underground to Richmond (which is on the District Line) and take a 40 minute walk. The queues back into Twickenham Rail Station can get very long at the end of a big match, so if you’re happy to walk it you might actually save yourself time.

Driving is sometimes an option although you’ll have to book a parking space well in advance.

Who's playing in the Gallagher Premiership rugby final this weekend?

This year, north London club Saracens will be vying to win their seventh Premiership trophy while Sale Sharks will be aiming for their second.

The two teams have had incredible seasons so far, coming first and second in the league tables and both going on to secure and win home semi-finals last weekend. Now, it's all about Twickenham – and the stakes are very high.
