Every confirmed New Zealand rugby fixture, with dates for WXV, Men’s Rugby World Cup and the Women’s British & Irish Lions tour.

New Zealand rugby fixtures are full to the brim with both the All Blacks and Black Ferns busy over the next few months. Below you’ll find every confirmed match the two sides are playing between now and the pool stages of the 2027 Men’s Rugby World Cup.

The All Blacks headed into this year’s campaigns under new management, with Dave Rennie now installed as head coach. His tenure began three wins out of three in the inaugural Nations Championship, as his side ran out victorious against France, Italy and Ireland.

However, the bright start didn’t continue with three out of four losses against South Africa in the Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry tour. And while there’s no Rugby Championship this year, the men’s team still have their annual tussle with Australia, aka the Bledisloe Cup, to look forward to in October.

  • The All Blacks lost three out of four Tests against South Africa on the Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry tour.
  • The Black Ferns have a packed September and October, with WXV Global Series matches against England and South Africa, and four against France.
  • The All Blacks will kick off their Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 campaign against Chile on 2 October 2027.

The Black Ferns failed to retain the Rugby World Cup after they lost to Canada in the semi-final in 2025. However, they did come away with the bronze medal, and will be looking to be back to their best as the next RWC cycle begins. They have WXV matches against Australia, South Africa and France scheduled across September and October, and 2027 will see the British & Irish Lions embarking on their first ever tour to New Zealand.

Beyond the upcoming New Zealand rugby fixtures you’ll find below, we’ve also got guides to upcoming England, Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Wales matches. For other international and club sides, check out our detailed round-up of rugby fixtures around the world.
