NATIONS CHAMPIONSHIP 2026
The Nations Championship arrives in July 2026, bringing a new era of international rugby to fans across Australia.
The tournament will feature two groups of teams competing in a Northern v Southern Hemisphere format across six rounds, with three fixtures played in July and three in November, before culminating in a first-of-its-kind Finals Weekend in London to decide rugby’s newest title.
Bringing together 12 of the biggest international rugby teams in the world, the Nations Championship will see the sport’s best players go head-to-head, where every point, every result and every match matters.
The Wallabies will open their 2026 Nations Championship campaign on home soil, with three huge Tests across Sydney, Brisbane and Perth.
