What is the Rugby Summer Series?

The Summer Series is a set of international matches that essentially get used as warm-ups for the Rugby World Cup. The fixtures see major international teams compete in a run of friendlies across the UK in preparation for the big competition in September.

The Series allows coaches to test out potential strategies and player positions, while young gun players get the chance to test themselves on an international level and essentially audition for the World Cup squad.

For fans, it’s a different experience to the usually drizzly rugby season, but still carries the same number of tense moments, last-gasp scores and world-class tries.

The tickets to England’s summer matches are scattered across different ticketing sites: Their home matches at Twickenham (against Wales and Fiji) can be found on the official England page eticketing.

Meanwhile, their away games in Dublin and Cardiff can be bought on Ticketmaster, where you’ll also find some of the other upcoming summer matches, like the All Blacks v Spring Boks.

Rugby Summer Series 2023: how much do tickets cost?

Tickets prices for Twickenham have skyrocketed in recent years, but happily, the Summer Series doesn’t seem to have followed that trend.

For the England v Fiji match, prices start as low as £10, while the England v Wales match has seats available from £25 each. Considering the Six Nations match between the two was over double that this year, the summer friendlies might be your best bet for seeing a major international match that doesn’t break the bank.

This is, of course, a very different story in hospitality, which has prices starting from £249 and going all the way up to £599. But with these packages, you can expect the full luxury treatment, with complimentary drinks, scrum-tious food and even a chance to meet your rugby heroes.

Rugby World Cup 2023: are there still tickets available?

As you’re here to look at some of the international warm-up matches, you might also be interested to know that tickets for this year’s Rugby World Cup are still available.

Taking place across France, with games in Paris, Lille, Bordeaux and more, the 2023 Rugby World Cup will run from 8 September to 28 October.

The general sale went live back in September 2022, meaning all of the standard tickets are now sold out. However, you can find a surplus of resale tickets at LiveRugbyTickets.com.

It’s worth noting that at RadioTimes.com, we tend to avoid resale sites and wouldn’t normally advise using them, but this particular page has a high rating on Trust Pilot (4.4) and has tickets available for almost every World Cup match, including the final.

Beware though that resale sites can be very expensive, with prices for this competition ranging from £80 to £1,325. As we get nearer the tournament, we’ll be sure to update you on prices and availability.
