The 2026 Nations Championship
The international rugby union test schedule was given a major revamp this year with the launch of the Nations Championship, a new 12-team competition designed to sharpen the competitive edge to fixtures played between other major tournaments.
Wales have been right in the thick of the action, first competing in July’s Southern Hemisphere Series, where Steve Tandy’s side won against Fiji (39-24), but lost to Argentina (21-35) and South Africa (0-43).
Japan meanwhile, came out of the blocks quickly in Tokyo against Italy (27-10), though the Cherry Blossoms wilted against Ireland (20-36) and France (15-42), ending the first phase on four points, one fewer than the Welsh (5).
The Nations Championship reignites in November and Wales’s clash with Japan in Cardiff is one of six games on the slate in the opening round of the Northern Hemisphere Series.

How to get to the Principality Stadium
Nestled right in the heart of Cardiff, getting to the Principality Stadium on matchday is straightforward and below, we’ve listed some of the ways supporters can travel to the ground.
By Car
The Principality Stadium is just 15 minutes from the M4 and you can take junction 28 onto the A48 to reach it. Follow signs for Cardiff (E)/Cardiff (S)/Caerdydd(Dn)/Caerdydd (D). There are plenty of parking options in the city centre, but no dedicated car park for fans beside the stadium. You should also note that road closures come into effect on matchday.
By Train
Cardiff Central station is just five minutes away from the stadium, with services running into there from West Wales, the Midlands, the South Coast and London. It’s worth noting that there is usually a queuing system in operation at the station on matchdays, so factor that into your travel plans. Alternatively, Cardiff Queen Street Station is just a 15-minute walk from the stadium.
By Bus
With road closures common around the stadium on matchday, different city centre bus stops are used and we recommend visiting the Cardiff Bus website for clarity if you plan to use this method of transport.
Park & Ride facilities
The local Cardiff council organises park and ride services for supporters when large events like Wales vs Japan are being held at the Principality Stadium. Visit the stadium or event organiser’s website on matchdays for more detailed information.
Wales vs Japan Rugby Union: A brief history
Wales and Japan first met in an international rugby union test match in October 1993 and they’ve been regular opponents since, meeting 13 times in total over the past few decades.
Wales enjoyed a cosy 55-5 win over their Asian opponents at the Cardiff Arms Park back in 1993, which set the tone for a one-sided record between the sides. Indeed, Wales won eight successive encounters with the Cherry Blossoms, running up some massive scores along the way, including a 98-0 mauling in 2004.
However, the gap between the teams has narrowed in recent years, with an improved Japan winning two of the nations’ last five meetings and when the Brave Blossoms last visited Cardiff in November last year, they lost by just a single point (23-24).
That suggests Wales’s tussle with Japan this autumn should be another intense battle of inches at the Principality Stadium and you can be there, in person, to see who comes out on top.
When Wales play on home soil, supporters in attendance are guaranteed to be entertained. From the stirring renditions of “Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau” (Land of My Fathers), to the hard-hitting, fast-flowing rugby on show, Wales rugby union tickets are always worth buying, and you can pick up yours with just a few clicks on our real-time ticket marketplace.
