Steve Borthwick handed ‘perfect start’ to the 2024 Six Nations, fixtures confirmed

England head coach Steve Borthwick’s side will open their campaign away against Italy on Saturday 3rd February.

“The Six Nations is the most prestigious annual competition in International Test rugby,” said Borthwick. “Supporters love watching it, players love playing in it, and it is a special challenge for all the coaches lucky enough to be involved. 

“This year’s Championship has been an excellent example of just how competitive the tournament is, with a consistently fine display of exciting, good quality rugby. 

“We look forward to two great home fixtures, as we welcome Wales and Ireland to Twickenham.  I have no doubt that our excellent supporters will once again be shouting us on both home and away.”

Tickets information will be confirmed in the coming weeks. Hospitality packages for England’s home fixtures are on sale.
