Hibernian Christmas Auction: Halfway Update!

The Hibernian Christmas Appeal for 2025 is in full swing after launching last week, and with just over a week remaining there’s still plenty of ways to get involved.

Whether you’re wanting to win a prize in the Silent Auction, buy a bauble to hang on the Easter Road Tree, or donate directly to one of our great community activities, there’s something for everyone this Christmas Appeal. 

As we arrive to the halfway point the Silent Auction has already raised £15,000, with some incredible items more than doubling their starting bid price and then some! However, there’s some fantastic prizes that are flying under the radar, and an early bid could be enough to fend off the late rush that will be coming this time next week: 

Signed Cristiano Ronaldo Manchester United Shirt (0 bids, £300) 

  • Take home a signed shirt from one of the greatest to ever play the game. This shirt is from his last season at Manchester United in his first spell and comes signed, framed and with a certificate of authenticity. 

Tickets to watch Nottingham Forest and Porto (Separate Items, both 0 bids) 

  • Whether you’re looking to watch Sean Dyche’s Forest in action in the English Premier League or fancy a trip to Porto to watch the Liga Portugal table-toppers at home, there are some amazing days out at iconic football venues to enjoy. 

Hospitality Boxes at the Musselburgh Races 

  • Book out an entire box at the Musselburgh races in February with 19 of your best friends! Not only that, you’ll earn naming rights for one of the days’ races and be treated a variety of hospitality treats in the box, including food and expert tips. 

In addition to the under the radar items, there’s a number of great prizes that are proving to be popular with this year’s auction-goers. 

Have a look below at the most popular items per bid, and see if you can’t come out on top at the end of the auction: 

DiVino Enoteca for 10: 3 Courses & Wine (8 bids, £400): 

  • The perfect place to celebrate with family and friends this holiday season, gather 9 of your nearest and dearest for three courses of their finest, accompanied by two bottles of red and two of white! 

Spend a matchday with Hibs TV! (6 Bids, £400): 

  • If you’ve ever wanted to be on Hibs TV, this is your chance! On a matchday selected by you, you will join our Hibs TV Presenter and Guest on the pre-match show from Easter Road, before going behind the scenes for Hibs TV Commentary. 

4 Tickets to Aston Villa at Villa Park (5 Bids, £400) 

  • Hibs’ legend John McGinn has just surpassed 300 games for the club he joined straight from Easter Road, and is only getting better with age. This is your chance to get down to Birmingham and see him and his Villa teammates in action with three of your best football friends! 

On top of the above, there’s a range of great prizes still available including exclusive golf prizes, luxury stays in Scotland and abroad, and a great number of items for every kind of Hibs’ fan! 

However you get involved this Christmas Appeal, every little bit helps support HCF’s great range of community activities throughout 2026.
