Your Guide to the Perfect Rugby Matchday

Make a day of it 

A full day of international rugby at Allianz Stadium, with two matches, premium hospitality and the atmosphere of a tournament reaching its conclusion. 

The Nations Championship Finals Weekend brings three days of rugby to Allianz Stadium this November, with six matches played across the weekend. Every ticket gives you access to both games on your chosen day, making it an exciting and unique way to experience international rugby. 

From arriving ahead of kick off and enjoying hospitality to taking your seat for two matches of international rugby, there is plenty to make a day of at Allianz Stadium. 

Start the day in style 

Arrive at Allianz Stadium from 11-11:30pm and give yourself time to settle into the day before the rugby gets underway. Take in the atmosphere around the stadium, enjoy a drink and soak up the excitement as the afternoon builds. 

With two matches included in every ticket, there is no need to rush. Take your time, enjoy the pre match atmosphere and make the most of the build up before heading to your seats for the first game. 

With premium hospitality, your matchday starts before the first whistle. Arrive early, settle in and enjoy the experience before the rugby gets underway. 

Make more of your match day 

A great rugby match is about more than the 80 minutes on the pitch. Premium hospitality gives you the chance to enjoy the build up, take your time over food and drinks and have somewhere to relax before the action begins. 

At the Nations Championship Finals Weekend, hospitality becomes part of the matchday itself, giving you a comfortable setting to enjoy the atmosphere before taking your seats for two matches of international rugby. 

Rugby Social Hospitality Inclusions: 

Premium match tickets 
Enjoy both matches on your chosen day from your premium seating in the East Stand. 

Pre match hospitality 
Start the day in you dedicated rooftop hospitality roughly 3 hours before heading to the stadium bowl. 

Food and drinks 
Enjoy an all inclusive bar with ales, Guinness, premium beers and a selection of wines, alongside urban style food, from live cooking stations. Additional British favourites will be served by roaming waiting staff. Post match snacks are also available, giving you the chance to continue the experience after the final whistle. 

Entertainment  
Enjoy live music and a lively atmosphere throughout the day, with TV screens positioned around the venue showing the matches and post match interviews, so you can keep up with the action wherever you are.

The rugby: what to expect 

The Nations Championship Finals Weekend brings the Northern and Southern Hemispheres together at Allianz Stadium, with the results from the opening rounds helping to shape the final matchups.

The Southern Hemisphere teams have already completed their July fixtures, with South Africa currently leading the standings and New Zealand close behind. Scotland currently sit at the top of the Northern Hemisphere rankings, with France and England also in the mix. With the Northern Hemisphere series getting underway on 6 November, there is still plenty to play for before the final positions are decided.

We will be keeping an eye on the scores as the November fixtures unfold, with every result having the potential to change the Finals Weekend line up.

By the time the tournament reaches Allianz, Saturday’s double header will see South fifth place face North fifth place before the South & North second placed teams meet. Sunday’s action then builds towards the weekend’s finale, with South fourth place facing North fourth place before the top ranked teams from each hemisphere go head to head in the final match.

With leading international sides from across the Northern and Southern Hemispheres competing, the calibre of rugby is set to be high throughout the weekend. Every match carries significance, with the final Sunday fixture deciding the Nations Championship winner.

Away from the pitch, Allianz Stadium will take on a different atmosphere as supporters from across the rugby world come together for three days of international competition. Two matches on each day means the energy continues throughout the afternoon, building towards Sunday’s final encounter.
