MENS RUGBY WORLD CUP 2027

Mens Rugby World Cup 2027

The eleventh edition of the men’s Rugby World Cup is being held in Australia in 2027. Held across nine venues on both the west and east coasts, the RWC smashes the world’s biggest and best rugby teams against one another in a thrilling tournament.

South Africa, the defending champions from the 2023 tournament held in France, will be looking to extend their current record-holding four tournament victories by clinching a fifth!

The Rugby World Cup is also an opportunity for the other rugby nations to showcase their skills on the world stage. Who can forget Japan beating South Africa in 2025? Or Uruguay pipping Fiji 30-27 in 2019? The World Cup has endless opportunity to surprise us all; Australia 2027 can’t come around quickly enough!
