Where it stands

As of 5 Oct 2026

No public ballot exists for any of the four unions, and no 2027 public on-sale dates have been announced.

The RFU help centre says it has no details for a public sale of the England home games against France, Scotland and Italy. The dated 2027 RFU routes were all for restricted groups.

Affiliated clubs could buy their Six Nations 2027 entitlements from 10:00 on 26 Aug 2026 until 16:00 on 22 Sept 2026, with club sales for the Dublin and Cardiff away games from 10:00 on 30 Sept 2026. Twickenham residents with the free Twickenham Residents membership (TW1, TW2, TW3 2 and TW7 7 postcode areas) could buy from 10:00 on 2 Sept 2026 to 16:00 on 23 Sept 2026.

The accessibility ballot for eligible Access Card holders ran from 10:00 on 1 Sept 2026 to 16:00 on 2 Oct 2026, with no results date published. Scotland and Wales put their home fixtures into open first-come general sales, announced separately by each union.

How tickets actually work

England: create a free account at eticketing.co.uk/rfu and watch for on-sale news. The RFU help centre states it has no details for a public sale of the France, Scotland and Italy home games. The 2027 club entitlement window (10:00 on 26 Aug 2026 to 16:00 on 22 Sept 2026) was reached through an RFU-affiliated club rather than as an individual, so joining a local affiliated club is the practical route into England home matches. Twickenham residents had a separate window, 10:00 on 2 Sept 2026 to 16:00 on 23 Sept 2026, through a free Twickenham Residents membership (TW1, TW2, TW3 2 and TW7 7 postcode areas, proof of address required). Ireland: through IRFU club and branch allocations plus a members' route. Scotland and Wales: open general sales announced by each union, typically in the autumn before the championship.

Your odds

England matches usually sell out through member/debenture/hospitality channels, so a public general sale may not happen at all for big games (France, Scotland); joining an affiliated rugby club and entering its internal ballot is the realistic face-value route in England and Ireland

Good to know

Which union sells the match decides your route, not which teams are playing. Wales and Scotland both put their home fixtures into open first-come general sales, while England and Ireland push most inventory through affiliated clubs first, so one tournament has four different levels of difficulty depending on the host city.
The club route runs on a season timetable, not a match one. In the 2026 cycle the RFU's club ticket window ran 27 Aug 2025 to 24 Sept 2025, months ahead of the matches, so a club membership taken out in the new year arrives long after the allocation has gone.
