Hibs To Face Bolton For Darren McGregor’s Testimonial Match

The career of Scottish Cup-winning defender Darren McGregor will be commemorated when Hibernian FC face Bolton Wanderers this summer.

The match will take place on Saturday 19 July, 2025 at Easter Road Stadium, kicking off at 2pm.

On a special day commemorating his service to Hibernian FC, McGregor will grace the Easter Road pitch once more and make an appearance in the match.

Whilst celebrating the magnificent career of ‘Daz’, the fixture still remains a key part of the First Team pre-season schedule as they prepare for the upcoming campaign.

Darren McGregor Testimonial Committee Chairman, Graeme Cadger said: “We would like to thank Hibernian FC for their cooperation, Bolton Wanderers FC for agreeing to provide the opposition, and to David Gray for allowing Darren to play part of the match.

“We believe this will be a great occasion to celebrate the career of a Hibernian FC great, and we hope to see as many supporters there as possible to give Daz a moment to remember.”

All ticket details, sponsorship opportunities, and hospitality packages are planned to be announced early next week.

McGregor joined Hibernian FC in August 2015 and went on to make 188 appearances for his beloved club, scoring eight goals.

A leader in the Hibs squad, he was an integral part of the Club’s Scottish Cup triumph in 2016 playing in all seven matches.

After hanging up his boots, ‘Daz’ was appointed as Head Coach for our Under-18s side, who recently won the CAS Elite League title under his stewardship and excitedly prepare for UEFA Youth League football next season.
