Hibernian will face Linlithgow Rose, Berwick Rangers and Blackburn Rovers this pre-season.
The first match for Neil Lennon’s side will be against Junior outfit Linlithgow Rose at Prestonfield on Saturday 30 June at 3pm. The SJFA East Superleague team finished second in their division last season and have won the Junior Cup four times.
Entry to the game will be £6 for adults and £3 for concessions, with full matchday arrangements to be announced in due course.
On Wednesday 4 July Hibernian will make the short journey over the border to face Berwick Rangers at Shielfield Park in our second match of pre-season, with a kick-off of 7:45pm.
It will be the fifth pre-season in a row the two sides have met, with the run stretching back to 2014. Matchday arrangements will be confirmed in the near future.
As previously announced, Paul Hanlon has been awarded a testimonial against Blackburn Rovers, which will be played on Sunday 8 July at Easter Road Stadium, kicking off at 3pm.
These games act as a warm-up to the Club’s first match of the season, which will be in the UEFA Europa League First Qualifying Round First Leg on Thursday 12 July, with the draw taking place on Tuesday 19 June.

I'd presume we will be arranging more than just these 3 games before the first Europa League game.
With how much the starting line ups rotate in these kind of games you'd be lucky if our first 11 get a game and a half in pre-season before playing potentially a half decent side mid-way through their season in the EL. Maybe away to Dunfermline or the likes to come.

Would think everybody would get 45 minutes at Linlithgow. Same again at Berwick. Then the starting lineup iagainst Blackburn will be close to the team for the European tie.
Hopeafully we get one of the absolute minnows in Europe and that effectively forms part of pre season.

Sounds like we will be taking a strong squad to the Linlithgow Rose game rather than a Hibs XI that we expected.
