The Scottish FA released details for both semi-finals, with Hearts playing Aberdeen at the National stadium the day before our own match.

Hearts versus Aberdeen is the first Semi-Final, and has a 12:30pm kick-off time on Saturday, 19 April. It will be live on both BBC One Scotland and Premier Sports.

The St Johnstone v Celtic semi-final will be live on Premier Sports

2021 Scottish Cup winners St Johnstone then take on the holders and the most successful club in the Scottish Cup’s history, Celtic on Sunday, 20 April, with a kick off time of 3pm. This semi-final is exclusively live on Premier Sports.

The draw took place on Monday in Livingston, with Scottish Cup winners Lewis Stevenson and Julie Fleeting completing the draw.

The Scottish FA also confirmed that ticket prices have been frozen since last year’s semi-finals, which is welcome news for supporters of all four clubs still in the cup competition.

Scottish Cup Ticket Information and Prices

Ticket prices for both matches are listed below, with prices frozen from last year’s Semi-Finals. Basically adult prices will be £40 for the South and North stands and £30 for behind the goals in the East or West stands, with Over 65s and U16s paying half those prices.

No news on the number of tickets Celtic will receive but given St Johnstone is unlikely to bring too many to Hampden it should be of the region of 40,000. All those on the Home Cup Ticket Scheme should probably be fine for tickets without waiting on a ballot.

Celtic has won the Scottish Cup 42 times and has played in 62 finals

Celtic have won the Scottish Cup in past two seasons and another 40 times on top of those two. No other club – dead or alive – has won the Scottish Cup more than Celtic and Brendan Rodgers will be looking to make it Scottish Cup win No.43 come May 24 May 2025.

Before that though it will be all about getting past St Johnstone on Easter Sunday to earn our place in another Scottish Cup Final, for what would be the club’s 62nd final in our proud, unbroken history.
