The 2026 Nations Championship
Rugby union’s summer and autumn international test windows were crying out for a revamp and the Nations Championship was added to the calendar for the first time this year in a bid to do just that.
Rugby fans worldwide were treated to some outstanding fixtures in July during the competition’s initial Southern Hemisphere Series, when world-class players were on show and matches of genuine importance took place.
Play resumes with the Northern Hemisphere Series in November, when England, France, Wales, Ireland, Italy and Scotland take their turn to host games against the likes of New Zealand, Australia, Japan, South Africa, Fiji and Argentina.
Scotland performed brilliantly in July and dug out wins over Argentina (47-38) and Fiji (33-17), and despite suffering a defeat to South Africa (42-28) in between, the Scots found themselves nestled in second spot in the Northern Hemisphere Pool after three games.
Japan also started brightly with a triumph over Italy (27-10) in Tokyo, though successive setbacks against Ireland (20-36) and France (42-15) followed, leaving the Cherry Blossoms with work to do in November.
Tickets for Scotland vs Japan in the autumn are already proving very popular with our customers, who, as you can see above, have been snapping up seats for the game in droves. However, you still have a chance to catch all of the action at Murrayfield.
