After discussion with their broadcast partners, BBC Wales, S4C and Setanta Sports, Celtic Rugby have released the confirmed dates and kick-off times for Magners League matches up until the New Year.
BBC Wales’ Scrum V Live programme returns to its Friday evening slot but with a slightly earlier time of 19.05, with their opening broadcast featuring Newport Gwent Dragons v Glasgow Warriors (Friday 5 September, 19.05).

On Saturday 6 September, S4C’s Y Clwb Rygbi kicks off its season from the Arms Park where Cardiff Blues host current champions Leinster (18.30).

Midweek Welsh derby action follows with Ospreys v Blues on Tuesday 9 September (S4C, 19.35) and Dragons v Scarlets on Wednesday 10 September (BBC Wales, 19.05).

The Scarlets host their first Magners League match at their new Parc y Scarlets stadium in Round 7 when they take on Munster (Friday 28 November, 19.05).

Setanta Sports will feature action from Ireland and Scotland each weekend, as well broadcasting selected games from Wales.

With a minimum of two Magners League games broadcast live every weekend, fans will have a great opportunity to follow their favourite team, home or away.
