France vs Wales Tickets 2027 | Six Nations Paris
Defending champions France begin their 2027 Guinness Men’s Six Nations campaign with a winnable-looking opening fixture at home to Wales at the Stade de France on Saturday, 6 February, with kick-off in Paris set for 16:40 GMT.
Fabien Galthié’s side are aiming to enter the history books this year as the first time ever to win three Six Nations Championships in a row and they are heavy favourites to start their hunt for a three-peat with a routine victory over Wales in the French capital.
Les Bleus ran roughshod over Wales in Cardiff in 2026 (54-12) and clipped the Dragons’ wings in Paris the year before that in a 43-0 rout, so anyone of a Welsh persuasion could be watching this one through their fingers.

France vs Wales, Six Nations 2027: match preview and head-to-head
Winners of each of the last two editions of the Six Nations, France are targeting a historic three-peat this year and are favourites to complete their hattrick. An opening fixture against Wales on home soil in Paris should give Les Bleus a chance to put an early marker down.
This Round 1 mismatch pits the defending champions against last year’s Wooden Spoon holders and the gigantic gap in class between France and Wales was evident in Cardiff last year, when the French steamrolled their hosts in a 54-12 thumping at the Principality Stadium.
When France last hosted Wales in Paris, the final scoreline was just as emphatic, with the French delivering a showcase of technical rugby in a 43-0 drubbing. Indeed, Les Bleus have won 100% of their last eight tussles with their Welsh counterparts in what’s been a dominant modern era for France.
Longer term, the H2H balance is very even, however. France and Wales have contested 106 Test matches since 1908, with Les Blues winning 52 times to their opponent’s 51, however, we have to go all the way back to 2019 to find the last Welsh win in the Six Nations (24-19).
So, what can fans visiting the Stade de France in February expect? Chances are you’ll see plenty of tries, a big score and a French side in total command against Steve Tandy’s strugglers. That should mean a buoyant home crowd, jovial atmosphere and superb experience in the French capital are guaranteed.

Stade de France guide
The magnificent Stade de France sits just north of Paris in the suburb of Saint-Denis, and the stunning venue is the fitting home of French rugby. Capacity there is a massive 81,338 and when it’s heaving, the ground can create a wall of noise like nowhere else.
Most of the bars and food outlets around and inside the stadium are card-only, and security is tight, so travel light and leave your bags behind when you travel.
Kick-off is 17:40 local time, so expect the general area to be very busy, before and after the game, on what will be a crowded Saturday evening in Paris.
Welsh support always travels well and they will play their part in building atmosphere in the streets around Saint-Denis and inside the ground. Both sets of fans will mix freely inside.
We recommend getting to the gates an hour before the match starts. That should give you ample time to get through checks, find a drink and get to your seats to hear La Marseillaise in all its glory.
How to get to the Stade de France for France vs Wales
RER
This is Paris’s high-speed commuter rail service. You can get RER B to La Plain-Stade de France or RER D to Stade de France-Saint-Denis, which are the primary matchday routes. The stadium is a short walk from either station. With the match likely to finish at around 19:30, there should be plenty of same-evening trains back to central Paris. Platforms will be busy, however! So, be patient.
Metro
Another widely-used method for matches at the Stade de France. Metro line 14 takes you to Stade de France-Saint-Denis, while 13 brings you to Saint-Denis-Porte de Paris. The RER option above is quicker, however, the Metro can offer an alternative if you’re stuck.
Driving and parking
While there is parking at the stadium, you’ll need to book in advance to secure a spot. Roads around Saint-Denis are restricted during Six Nations matchday, making it very tricky to get around. If you’re driving to the game from the Channel ports, it might be a good idea to park further out and finish your journey on the train.
Eurostar and flights
If you’re travelling from the UK, you can take the Eurostar to Gare du Nord in Paris. From there you can get the RER to Saint-Denis. Charles de Gaulle airport is a very short flight from the UK, too, so same-day return trips are absolutely possible.
