All the stages of ticketing have been completed right now but there could still be ways for you to get your hands on a ticket. Plenty of people buy tickets and then are unable to attend, look to re-sell them, or they bought a ticket for the wrong match. That last point has been common because of how tight many of the groups have been.

The Rugby World Cup website has provided a safe and secure platform for the re-selling and purchasing of tickets. People simply post their tickets on the website and then they go back into the inventory which allows any customer to try and buy them.

Given the excitement for the knockout stages, Rugby World Cup have looked to make it clear that their service for reselling tickets is the safest way possible. They have been quick to say that this is the only approved way of reselling tickets too.
