The announcement will be broadcast live on the Lions Facebook page, and on YouTube – while fans can also follow via a live blog on the Lions website, Twitter, Instagram or Snapchat by following the ‘lionssnaps’ account.
Thousands of fans who have selected squads using the ‘My Lions’ feature on the official Lions App will get to see how close they got to naming the final 37.
The highly-anticipated ten-match Tour kicks off on Saturday June 3 against Provincial Union XV, before the Lions face all five New Zealand Super Rugby sides and the Maori All Blacks in preparation for the opening Test match against New Zealand on Saturday June 23.
Two more Test matches follow on Saturday July 1 and Saturday July 8, as the Lions look to create history and claim a series win in New Zealand for the first time since 1971.
