Rugby Park, the home of Kilmarnock FC, has an artificial pitch

Kilmarnock's Rugby Park will host Scotland's November Test against Georgia, Scottish Rugby has confirmed.

The sides will meet on the artificial surface on Saturday, November 26 (2.30pm) for the final game of Scotland's three-Test autumn series, which also includes matches against Australia and Argentina.

It marks Scotland's first return to the ground since beating Tonga there in front of 16,000 fans in November 2014. It was the first international match involving a tier-one nation to be held on a fully-artificial surface.

"Scottish Rugby continues to take international rugby across the country in a bid to grow the sport," Scottish Rugby's chief operating officer Dominic McKay told scottishrugby.org.

Moving around Rugby Park is the ninth venue Scotland have played a home international fixture at.

"And we hope taking our national team to Ayrshire will inspire a new audience as a means to increasing interest and participation in grassroots rugby."

Ayrshire-born Scotland prop Gordon Reid said: "Personally I really enjoy playing on the artificial surfaces which is another bonus of playing at Rugby Park.

"It makes for a quick game and the skill level is usually higher, so it should prove an exciting game for the fans."
