Footy fans keen for their fix of local NRL need to mark Friday, December 8, on their calendars, with tickets to the Dolphins and Gold Coast Titans Pre-Season Challenge clash going on sale at noon.

The game on Sunday, February 18, at Sunshine Coast Stadium will be a chance for fans to get a look at the Queensland rivals’ teams for the 2024 NRL Telstra Premiership.

Dolphins NRL CEO Terry Reader said the club was excited about returning to the Sunshine Coast.

“We received tremendous support from members and fans at our 2023 regular season game on the Sunshine Coast, selling out the venue in under two hours,” he said.

“Whether that was fans based in the area or the thousands of travellers that headed north from Brisbane and Moreton Bay, we were absolutely thrilled by the support.

“A key Dolphins catchment, the Sunny Coast remains a pivotal focus for the club as we continue to build community connections in the northern corridor and we look forward to bringing that to life at Sunshine Coast Stadium in February.”

Sunshine Coast Council Economy Portfolio Councillor Jason O’Pray said the tickets would be hot property.

The game will kick off at 5.15pm and general admission prices start from $25 for juniors, $35 for adults and $100 for a family of four. Tickets will be available through Ticketek.
