Six Nations 2024 rugby fixtures, results, schedule: When do England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland play matches?

The 2024 Six Nations is here. The six-team competition kicks off on February 2 with a blockbuster clash between France and Ireland, and runs until March 16.

Who will be crowned champions? Will Ireland repeat? Will anyone win the Grand Slam?

We can’t give you the answers to those questions yet, but we can tell you all the fixture information, kick-off times, tournament schedule, and who’s playing who on the opening weekend…

This year’s Six Nations starts under the lights in Marseille as France take on Ireland on Friday, February 2 (20:00 UK time).

England play on Saturday as they travel to Italy (14:15 UK time) before Wales host Scotland (16:45 UK time).

There are five rounds of fixtures which conclude on March 16.

The final day of action sees Wales play Italy, Ireland face Scotland, and France take on England.

England’s Six Nations campaign will start at the Stadio Olimpico on the opening weekend.

They then play at Twickenham against Wales on Saturday, February 10, before a trip to Scotland on February 24 to decide the Calcutta Cup.

Steve Borthwick’s side finish with a tricky-looking double header as they host Ireland on March 9 and then travel to France in the last game of the tournament on March 16.

Newly-appointed England captain Jamie George wants to follow in the footsteps of Ben Stokes and the England cricket team at the Six Nations.

Under Stokes, England have become one of the most entertaining and attacking teams in cricket.

England’s rugby team, on the other hand, have been criticised at times for not showing enough positive intent.

"I'm not saying we are going to go all out on attack," said George. "But what I am saying is Ben Stokes talks a lot about expressing themselves and the fact that they are entertainers.

"Something at the forefront of our mind, especially at the minute, is how we can put smiles on people's faces, how we can bring Twickenham back to that fortress we want it to be."
