Information
Murrayfield Stadium is situated in the Costorphine district of Edinburgh, some 3 miles (4.5 km) from the city centre. Murrayfield has been the home of Scottish rugby since it first opened in 1925 and it was continually developed over the course of the next sixty years until it reached its present status as the largest and most impressive stadium in Scotland. Murrayfield is an all-seated, all-covered stadium, the product of an ambitious redevelopment programme which took twelve years to complete at a cost of almost £50 million.
