Six Nations fixtures 2025: Details of this year’s championship matches

You’ve probably had these Six Nations fixtures 2025 in your diary since last year’s competition ended in March. After all, if you’re a rugby fan in the northern hemisphere, February and March are traditionally the most important months of the year, as Europe’s best men’s teams return to the field to renew old rivalries.

The 2025 Six Nations fixtures kick off a little earlier than usual, as Warren Gatland’s struggling Wales face the daunting prospect of a trip to Paris, taking on Fabien Galthié’s France at the Stade de France. And that’s just the appetiser for a tantalising Saturday of action, with Scotland hosting Italy at Murrayfield, and Ireland (looking for their third championship title in a row) looking for victory over an England team that denied them a Grand Slam in 2024.

This year’s tournament runs until Super Saturday on Saturday 15 March, and the organisers have saved a blockbuster round of fixtures to wrap up the competition – including England’s trip over the Severn Bridge to face Wales at the Principality Stadium. By then, we should have a better idea of who Andy Farrell is likely to pick for the British & Irish Lions tour to Australia – as well as the identity of the next Six Nations champions.

Every one of the Six Nations fixtures 2025 will be available to watch for free for UK viewers via the BBC or ITV – scroll down to find out which broadcaster has the rights to each game.
