Six Nations 2027: your complete guide to tickets, fixtures and group coach travel
The Guinness Six Nations returns on Friday 5 February 2027 and runs to Super Saturday on 13 March. Seven matches are played on British soil, at Twickenham, Murrayfield and Cardiff's Principality Stadium. If you're organising a rugby club trip, a pub outing or a supporters' group, Six Nations coach hire is the simplest way to get everyone to the ground and home again together.

Great customer service and communications before the trip. Very clear and flexible as well.
England kick-off times are taken from an RFU club notice (Ilkley RFC); Wales times from the Welsh Rugby Union. Always confirm on the official Six Nations Rugby site before you set a coach departure time.
How Much are Six Nations 2027 Tickets?
Face value tickets sell through the home unions and their affiliated clubs, and most UK games sold out through club ballots during summer 2026. What remains is mostly on resale or hospitality.
- Twickenham: RFU club applications closed in August 2026 and carried a £10 admin fee per ticket. Clubs warned members to expect no more than two tickets per big match, though England v Italy usually has wider availability. Resale listings in October 2026 started from roughly £137 for England v Italy, £224 for England v Scotland and £252 for England v France (SeatPick).
- Cardiff: The WRU released tickets through clubs, debenture holders and Premium Supporters from 4 August 2026. For Wales v England, more than 23,000 seats were priced under £100, with 50% off for under-18s and 30% off for students.
- Murrayfield: Scottish Rugby sells through its own ticketing site. Resale for Scotland v Italy and Scotland v Wales sat at roughly £120–£200 in October 2026.
How to Book Six Nations Tickets
- Through your rugby club. Clubs affiliated to the RFU, WRU or SRU receive allocations. This is the main face value route and the reason most supporters' coaches start at a clubhouse.
- Official union sites. Check England Rugby, WRU tickets and Scottish Rugby for returns and general sale.
- Official hospitality. Each union runs hospitality packages that often remain once general seats are gone.
- Resale. Use the union's own exchange where offered. Unofficial resale carries a risk of cancelled or invalid tickets.
Why Groups Choose Coach Hire for the Six Nations
Matchday travel to all three stadiums is a lot of work. Around Twickenham, Richmond Council runs an event day controlled parking zone, closes roads near the ground, and pre-allocates on-site car parking for internationals. Trains from Waterloo and Richmond are packed for hours after the final whistle.
A private coach removes all of that:
- One pickup, one dropoff. Leave from your clubhouse or local pub and come home to the same door.
- No designated driver. Everyone enjoys the day.
- Lower cost per head. Split one vehicle across 16, 33, 49 or 57 passengers instead of paying peak rail fares and parking.
- Flexible timings. Stop for a pre match pub lunch on the way, or head straight home after the post-match pint.
Ask your BusRoute driver to use a preagreed coach drop-off point; we plan routes around matchday road closures.
Which Vehicle Suits Your Group?
Group size | Vehicle | Best for |
| Up to 8 | Executive MPV / people carrier | Small family or friends groups |
| 9–16 | Minibus Hire | Club committee, five-a-side mates |
| 17–33 | Midi coach | Pub trips, junior section parents |
| 34–57 | Full size coach | Whole-club supporters' coach |
Planning a Weekend Trip to Murrayfield or Cardiff
Edinburgh and Cardiff trips are popular as two day breaks. Book your coach for the full weekend so the driver stays with the group, and check driver-hours rules allow for your planned return. Murrayfield has its own tram stop, but a coach that drops you near the West Stand saves queuing with 67,000 fans. In Cardiff, the stadium sits in the city centre, so a pre-arranged drop near Westgate Street avoids city-centre closures.
Six Nations coach hire: booking tips
- Book as soon as your tickets are confirmed. Coaches go quickly for England v France and Super Saturday.
- Give the operator your kick off time. We plan arrival two hours before kick off for big games.
- Agree the return time in advance. Most groups leave 60–90 minutes after full time.
- Check the drinks policy. Some operators allow alcohol on board for adult groups; ask when booking.
