Your complete guide to confirmed England rugby union fixtures, including the Nations Championship, WXV and the 2027 Six Nations

England rugby union fixtures will come thick and fast this year, with both the men’s and women’s sides in action throughout the year.

Having won the Women’s Rugby World Cup last year, the Red Roses are currently trying to win the Six Nations title for the eighth consecutive year, as they look to extend a winning streak that stretches back to 2023. They’re also set to take on Australia, Canada and New Zealand later in the year in the WXV Global Series.

Things aren’t looking quite so rosy for Steve Borthwick’s men’s team, who endured their worst ever performance in the Men’s Six Nations. The side’s next England rugby union fixture is their first ever match in the inaugural Nations Championship, for which they’ll travel to Johannesburg to take on the double world-champion Springboks. As well as those Nations Championship games, you’ll find all the Men’s Six Nations 2027 fixtures below.

We have comprehensive guides to New Zealand, South Africa, Scotland, Ireland and Wales fixtures. For other international and club sides, check out our detailed round-up of rugby fixtures around the world.
