The Queensland Reds will play two pre-season trial games in January to prepare for the lift-off to a bumper 2026 Swyftx Super Rugby Pacific season.

The Reds will travel to Perth to meet the Western Force on Friday, January 23 before Reds fans will get the opportunity to watch their team play at Ballymore Stadium on Saturday, January 31.

The January 31 pre-season clash, with the family-friendly afternoon kick-off of 2pm, will feature the Reds up against the NSW Waratahs, two weeks before the traditional rivals meet in Sydney to open the Super Rugby Pacific season on February 13.

The trials will be the first opportunity for Reds fans to size up new signings like Wallabies flyhalf Carter Gordon and utility back Ben Volavola.

The Reds have been hard at work during December with on-field and off-field preparations so they hit 2026 with a bang.

Reds Full Season Memberships are on sale, starting from $145 for adults and $75 for Juniors.
