How to get Rugby World Cup tickets

The tenth Rugby World Cup takes place in September and October 2023, and it is set to be one of the most competitive World Cups we’ve ever seen. So many different countries will be going into the tournament with a real chance of taking home the trophy.

It will be held in France, who last hosted the tournament in 2007 where they finished fourth. It’s actually quite rare for the hosts to win the Rugby World Cup – a feat only New Zealand and South Africa have achieved, but France have been widely regarded as the favourites to win. Though Ireland’s Grand Slam success may throw a spanner in the works.

As the hosts tend to alternate between the Northern and Southern hemisphere, it could be a long time before the event comes so close to these shores – particularly as the next Northern hemisphere host is the USA in 2031. To put it simply, you don’t want to miss out on the Rugby World Cup 2023.

We thought it would be a good idea to have a look at the various options you have to get tickets for the 2023 Rugby World Cup. The interest it has generated is huge, so you may want to act quickly so that you don’t miss out.

General Admission Rugby World Cup tickets​

General admission tickets for the Rugby World Cup 2023 need to be purchased directly from the official Rugby World Cup website. Unfortunately, the demand has been overwhelming and tickets are now in short supply.

The initial ‘pre-sale’ allocation of 300,000 tickets sold out on the day they were released, and now only resale tickets are available, which will require you to be on the official site at the exact time they become available, such is the demand.

Don’t despair though, as there are other options…
