Euro prices should be converted at the exchange rate applicable when you pay. Some resellers also charge currency conversion fees that may not be included in the price initially displayed.
Which 2027 ticket prices have been released?
As of 22 September 2026, only two of the six rugby unions had published their prices for the 2027 tournament. This is often overlooked, and explains why many websites claiming to list “2027 Six Nations ticket prices” are actually quoting estimates.
| Rugby union | 2027 prices published? | Publication date |
|---|---|---|
| Italy (FIR) | ✅ Yes, full price list | 9 April 2026 |
| Wales (WRU) | ✅ Yes, six categories | August 2026, via clubs |
| England (RFU) | ⚠️ Indicative price ranges, not officially confirmed | — |
| Scotland (Scottish Rugby) | ❌ No | Announcement expected “later in the year” |
| Ireland (IRFU) | ❌ No | — |
| France (FFR) | ❌ No — tickets not yet on sale | — |
⚠️ Avoid this pitfall
A website quoting an exact official price for France v Scotland 2027 at the Stade de France is making an unsupported claim: at the date checked, the FFR had not published prices or opened ticket sales. Be wary of prices shown without a source or the date they were checked.
Italy: the full official ticket price list
The Italian Rugby Federation opened advance ticket sales on 9 April 2026, ten months before the matches, and published its full price list. It was the first of the six unions to release prices so far in advance.
Ticket prices by seating category, including advance booking fees:
| Seating category | Standard price | PromoClub price | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curve (end stands) | €42 | €20 | 52% |
| Distinti (side stands) | €56 | €28 | 50% |
| Tribuna Tevere | €77–€87 | €47 | 39–46% |
| Tribuna Tevere Centrale | €112–€120 | €67 | 40–44% |
| Tribuna Tevere Top | €127–€140 | €82 | 35–41% |
| Tribuna Tevere VIP | €170 | — | — |
| Tribuna Monte Mario | €112–€147 | — | — |
The PromoClub rate is reserved for affiliated clubs and registered members of the Italian Rugby Federation. Eligible fixtures are Italy v Ireland (13 February 2027), Italy v France (6 March 2027) and Italy v Wales (13 March 2027), all scheduled for 3.10pm local time.
💡 One of the best-value tickets in the tournament
At €42, a seat behind the posts for Italy v France is the lowest published standard ticket price across the six stadiums, without requiring club membership. Getting to Rome may well cost more than the match ticket itself.
Wales: six price categories across two home fixtures
The Welsh Rugby Union uses six seating price bands, with prices varying by opposition. These are the rates circulated to Welsh clubs for the 2027 tournament.
| Category | Wales v Ireland 20 February 2027 | Wales v England 6 March 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| Category 1 | £145 | £155 |
| Category 2 | £130 | £140 |
| Category 3 | £120 | £125 |
| Category 4 | £110 | £115 |
| Category 5 | £85 | £95 |
| Category 6 | £65 | £70 |
Three details worth knowing before you book:
- Discounts are available for under-18s in the Lower Tier and for students in the Upper Tier.
- Alcohol-free seating areas fall into categories 5 and 6 — the two cheapest bands.
- General sale opened on 2 October 2026. Before then, applications were limited to clubs and eligible members.
Wales also operates an official ticket resale platform, allowing supporters to find tickets through an authorised channel after initial allocations sell out. See our guide to the six official Six Nations ticket outlets for more details.
England: the highest ticket prices in the Six Nations
Allianz Stadium, formerly Twickenham, has some of the highest ticket prices in the tournament. The following figures have been quoted for 2027 but have not been confirmed in an official RFU price announcement. Treat them as indicative only.
| Fixture | Date | Indicative price range |
|---|---|---|
| England v France | 14 February 2027 | £93–£207 |
| England v Italy | 20 February 2027 | £76–£155 |
| England v Scotland | 13 March 2027 | £93–£207 |
The difference between fixtures is striking: England v Italy is approximately 25% cheaper than England v France in a comparable seating category, based on these indicative ranges. Ticket prices reflect expected demand for each match.
Official hospitality package prices have been published
For England v Scotland 2027, the stadium lists six hospitality packages, with prices per person including VAT:
| Hospitality package | Price per person | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| British Airways Rose Garden | £899 | Live cooking stations, complimentary bar and live music |
| Allianz Suite | £949 | Complimentary bar with cocktails and a rugby legend appearance |
| Private Suites | £1,199 | Four-course meal in a private suite and all-inclusive bar |
| The Lock by Tom Kerridge | £1,349 | Four-course fine dining, premium bar and Q&A with rugby legends |
| The Gate | £1,449 | Four-course meal and unlimited premium bar |
| The East Wing | £1,549 | Four-course fine dining, beers and ales |
To put that into perspective: the most affordable hospitality package costs more than four times the highest indicative standard ticket price for the same match.
Scotland, Ireland and France: no published prices at the date checked
Three unions had not published any 2027 ticket prices as of 22 September 2026.
- Scotland — club ticket applications opened on 18 September 2026 and close on 16 October. Scottish Rugby said public sale dates and prices would be “confirmed later in the year”.
- Ireland — no full price list had been published. General sales are handled through Ticketmaster.ie, following club allocations and priority access for Supporters Club members.
- France — the two Stade de France fixtures, France v Wales (6 February 2027) and France v Scotland (21 February 2027), were listed with a “Notify me” option on billetterie.ffr.fr. Sales had not opened and no prices had been announced.
💡 Save yourself time
For these three unions, set up an account and switch on match alerts to receive news when tickets become available. Prices are often released close to the start of sales.
Understanding seating categories: why they differ between stadiums
A “Category 2” ticket does not guarantee the same type of seat at every stadium. Each union sets its own seating plan and price bands. The Principality Stadium uses six categories, while the Stadio Olimpico lists seven.
- Price often depends on proximity to the halfway line, not simply how high up you are. A lower-tier seat behind the posts can cost less than an upper-tier seat near halfway.
- Categories can be named after parts of the stadium rather than numbered. In Rome, Curve, Distinti, Tribuna Tevere and Tribuna Monte Mario are seating areas, not rankings by price.
- Some categories come with additional restrictions. In Cardiff, categories 5 and 6 include alcohol-free seating areas.
You can find seating plans and stand-by-stand information in our stadium guides: Stade de France, Allianz Stadium, Aviva Stadium, Murrayfield, Principality Stadium and Stadio Olimpico.
The real cost: face value, resale mark-ups and booking fees
Buying directly from the official ticket outlet generally gives you access to the original face-value price, although official booking fees may still apply. Resale platforms can introduce additional costs.
| Cost component | Who charges it? | When is it shown? |
|---|---|---|
| Face value | The rugby union or official seller | In the initial ticket price |
| Reseller mark-up | The resale platform or seller | Usually included in the listed price |
| Service fees | The ticketing platform | Often at checkout |
| Delivery fees | The ticketing platform | Often at checkout |
| Currency conversion fees | The platform or your card provider | At payment or on your statement |
When should you buy Six Nations tickets to get the best price?
Six Nations ticket availability and resale prices typically change across three stages.
- Official ticket release — your best chance of paying face value. In Italy, tickets went on sale ten months ahead of the matches; in Wales, around four months ahead. In France, public sales can open just weeks beforehand.
- After official allocations sell out — resale prices may rise. Once standard tickets are gone, availability becomes more limited, and demand can increase as the match approaches.
- The final few days — prices can be unpredictable. They may fall when ticket holders need to sell, or rise sharply if the result could decide the championship.
The practical rule: if you’re certain you want to attend, aim for the official ticket release. Waiting may mean paying more, although occasional last-minute opportunities do arise.
⚠️ Avoid this pitfall
Don’t assume prices will drop for high-demand fixtures such as France v England or Wales v England. Official allocations can sell out extremely quickly, and resale prices may remain well above face value.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest Six Nations ticket?
For the 2027 tournament, a seat in the Curve end stands at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico costs €42, including advance booking fees. Eligible members of the Italian Rugby Federation can pay just €20 through the PromoClub scheme.
What is the most expensive Six Nations ticket?
Indicative top-category standard tickets for England v France or England v Scotland at Allianz Stadium cost around £207, although these figures were not officially confirmed at the date checked. Official hospitality packages at the same venue range from £899 to £1,549 per person, including VAT.
How much are France v Scotland and France v Wales tickets for 2027?
No official prices had been released by 22 September 2026. The FFR had not yet opened ticket sales, and both fixtures were marked “Notify me” on billetterie.ffr.fr. Any prices advertised elsewhere at that point were estimates or resale offers, not confirmed face values.
Why do ticket prices vary depending on the opposition?
Rugby unions adjust prices according to expected demand. In Wales, a Category 1 ticket costs £145 for Ireland’s visit but £155 for England’s. Indicative prices for England v Italy are around 25% lower than for England v France in comparable categories.
Can rugby club members get cheaper Six Nations tickets?
Yes. Italy’s PromoClub scheme cuts some prices by around half: €20 instead of €42 for the end stands, or €28 instead of €56 for the Distinti stands. Elsewhere, membership benefits often relate more to priority ticket access than to a lower price.
Are there discounted tickets for children and students?
Yes, in Wales, discounts are available for under-18s in the Lower Tier and students in the Upper Tier. Other rugby unions may offer different concession schemes, usually announced when tickets go on sale.
Is the price shown by a ticket reseller the final price?
Not necessarily. Service and delivery charges may be added at checkout, while foreign currency fees depend on the currency charged and your payment provider. Always compare the final amount payable rather than just the headline ticket price.
The verdict
From €42 in Rome to indicative standard ticket prices of £207 in London, the Six Nations has six different national ticket-pricing systems. Italy publishes prices early; Wales uses six seating categories and opened general sale on 2 October; England has the highest indicative standard ticket prices; and Scotland, Ireland and France had not announced full price lists by 22 September 2026.
The key takeaway is simple: buying through an official ticket release is your best chance of securing a ticket at face value. On resale sites, additional mark-ups and fees can make the final cost considerably higher.
