Six Nations Rugby
Stay with us for the Six Nations Rugby tournament in 2024
The Six Nations tournament is an annual Rugby tournament between six nations - England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales. The Six Nations Championship originated in 1883 when England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales started their own competition. At the time the tournament was still called 'Home Nations' and therefore consisted of only 4 countries. Later, with the inclusion of France the name was at the time changed to the Five Nations tournament and, as we know it today it became the Six nations when Italy was included. A popular rugby tournament we get many supporters staying with us annually due to our close proximity to the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
2024 Fixtures - Home matches at the Principality Stadium - Cardiff
France will host Ireland in the first match of the 2024 Six Nations, with England taking on the French in the tournament's last game. Ireland, the only team still chasing a Grand Slam in this year's championship, also host Italy, Wales and Scotland and travel to England. Before the France trip, England face away matches in Italy and Scotland and home games against Wales and Ireland.
The tournament will run from 2 February to 16 March.
France's fixtures will be moved away from Stade de France because of its use in the 2024 Olympic Games, with a new venue yet to be decided. Les Bleus beat Ireland in Paris last year but lost an epic rematch in Dublin in this year's tournament.
The traditional Super Saturday climax sees Wales host Italy and Ireland entertain Scotland before England's match in France.
England travel to Scotland in the third round of fixtures having lost this year's Calcutta Cup match at Twickenham.
