A guide to all the Irish men and women's fixtures
Ireland rugby fixtures for the next year are all in one place here for the men’s and women’s teams.
Both have an action packed schedule. The men have the autumn internationals to contend with, which includes a rematch of the 2023 Rugby World Cup quarter-final against New Zealand. The All Blacks won that match to keep Ireland’s quarter-final bad luck continuing. Meanwhile, the women have played WXV 1 and next compete in the Women’s Six Nations.

The women’s team will also be competing in the Rugby World Cup in 2025.
