Which nights should you book for Hurricanes v Brumbies?

If you are attending the match and plan to travel home afterwards, especially after an evening kick-off, booking accommodation for the night of 22 May is advisable — traffic and public transport services can be busy post-event. If you are arriving from out of town and want to avoid a rushed day, consider checking in on the evening of 21 May. There is no indication of multiple match days, so a single-night stay (22 May) meets the fixture itself; a two-night stay (21–22 May) offers flexibility for travel timing.
