Wilson Cup

 

Including the Festival Cup

The Wilson Cup was presented for competition between Heart of Midlothian and Hibernian by Hearts' director Robert Wilson and was originally played on New Years Day. After WWI it was played at the end of the season until it was moved again and competed for at the start of the season from 1935. The trophy was originally intended to be awarded to the winner of the New Year league fixture but it became a tie in its own right. On a number of occasions the tie doubled up as either a League or Shield fixture.

 

The Festival Cup was briefly organised between 2003 and 2005 to coincide with the Edinburgh Festival. The idea was to have a triangular tournament with an invited foreign club but a single game format was adopted instead.
