Glasgow Warriors are exploring options to host the United Rugby Championship (URC) final outside of Scotland, with Belfast's Affidea Stadium emerging as a potential venue. This decision stems from the unavailability of suitable locations in Scotland, including their own Scotstoun Stadium, on the crucial date of 20 June.

Currently, the Warriors are leading the URC table, and a bonus-point victory against Ulster on Friday would secure them the top spot. This achievement would grant them the coveted home advantage throughout the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the final.

Key details include:

• Home quarter-final on 30 May at Scotstoun, contingent on their progress.
• Subsequent preparations for the Commonwealth Games 2026 will require Scotstoun, necessitating a venue change.
• A possible home semi-final is scheduled for 6 June at Murrayfield Stadium, which is also not available for the final due to a series of summer music concerts.

As the Warriors navigate these venue constraints, their focus remains on securing a successful run in the championship, with hopes of making the final a memorable event, even if it takes place in Belfast.
