Full fixtures for the Guinness Six Nations 2027: 15 matches across five rounds, from Friday 5 February to Saturday 13 March 2027. England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France and Italy.
The Six Nations Championship is the oldest international rugby competition in the world, with origins dating back to 1883. The 2027 edition is particularly significant as it falls in a Rugby World Cup year, and is expected to carry an extra edge: the six nations will be fine-tuning their squads both for this tournament and for the World Cup knockout phase in Australia just months later.
The format remains classic: five rounds, fifteen matches in total, played as a single round-robin. Each team faces the other five once, with either two or three home fixtures depending on the year. For 2027, England host Italy and Scotland at Twickenham, Wales (vs Ireland and England) and Ireland (vs England and France) anchor the home rotations, and standard pairings apply. The Calcutta Cup, contested between England and Scotland, is traditionally staged on the final round at Twickenham.
Matches are spread across five weekends between February and March. Three fixtures per round, barring exceptional cases. Round 5 (Saturday 13 March 2027) is traditionally known as "Super Saturday": all three closing matches are played on the same day, with staggered kick-off times so supporters can follow every minute. The Grand Slam scenario โ where a team wins all five matches โ often goes right down to the wire on Super Saturday.
Kick-off: Friday 5 February 2027, 20:10 GMT โ Ireland v England, Aviva Stadium, Dublin.
Le Crunch: Sunday 14 February 2027, 15:10 GMT โ England v France, Twickenham.
Super Saturday finale: Saturday 13 March 2027 โ closing in Dublin with Ireland v France at 20:10 GMT.

The 2027 Guinness Six Nations will be staged across six legendary stadiums, each steeped in history for its nation and for international rugby as a whole.
Alongside the Six Nations Championship Trophy awarded to the overall winner, several secondary trophies bring extra spice to the tournament. The Grand Slam (winning all five matches) remains the ultimate prize, followed by the Triple Crown, reserved for the home unions (England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland) when one of them beats the other three.
The Calcutta Cup, one of rugby's oldest trophies (first contested in 1879), is fought out between England and Scotland every year. In 2027, this fixture takes place in Round 5 (Super Saturday) on Saturday 13 March at Twickenham. The Championship also includes the Auld Alliance Trophy (France v Scotland), the Centenary Quaich (Scotland v Ireland), the Millennium Trophy (England v Ireland) and the Cuttitta Cup (Italy v Scotland).
The tournament also awards the Wooden Spoon to the team finishing bottom without a single win. And the closing fixture at Lansdowne Road (Aviva Stadium) on Super Saturday 2027 between Ireland and France could well prove decisive for the title, in a season where both sides will likely be in the running for the championship.
The Championship begins on Friday 5 February 2027 at 20:10 GMT with Ireland v England at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin. England's tournament starts there, with Scotland kicking off their campaign the following day, Saturday 6 February, against Italy at Murrayfield (14:10 GMT).
The Six Nations features 15 matches in total, spread across 5 rounds. Each team plays the other five once โ five matches per side.

The Grand Slam or title race often goes right down to the closing minutes of the night fixture.
