Ireland Confirms Home Venues for 2025 Six Nations

Ireland is scheduled to host France in Belfast and England in Cork during the 2025 Six Nations. Scott Bemand’s squad will initiate their tournament on March 22 at Kingspan Stadium against a French team ranked fourth worldwide. Ireland previously played at Kingspan Stadium twice in 2024. Last year, Ireland competed against Scotland at Kingspan Stadium in the Six Nations, winning the match to secure qualification for the 2025 World Cup. The team returned to the home of Ulster Rugby in September, where they defeated the Wallaroos in a fixture that served as a warm-up for their WXV1 campaign. Following an away game against Italy, they are then set to host the Red Roses at Musgrave Park on April 12, before concluding their schedule with visits to Wales and Scotland. Ireland achieved a victory over Wales in Cork during the previous Six Nations season and utilized the venue for both of their home games in the 2023 championship.
