7. Stade de France, Paris
“The first of the international grounds on our list of the best stadiums in world rugby, the atmosphere in Stade de France mirrors their national team: boisterous and joyful when on the front foot, but quiet and frail when behind.”
6. Twickenham, London
“For what England’s HQ lacks in atmosphere, it certainly makes up for it in occasion. At 82,000 it is the biggest rugby stadium in the Northern Hemisphere, having witnessed a record 13 Six Nations Grand Slams for their home side.”
5. Eden Park, Auckland
“Boasting the unique achievement of hosting two Rugby World Cup finals, we visited this 50,000 seater-stadium in 2017 as the Lions earned a series draw against New Zealand.”
4. Newlands, Cape Town
“First opened in 1890, Newlands is the oldest stadium on our list and remains stooped in history as the venue where Jonah Lomu ran riot against England in the 1995 Rugby World Cup, scoring four tries in the process.”
