About The Ashes 2027 — Lord's (London)

One of the five Tests of the 2027 Ashes — England versus Australia — is played at Lord's, the Home of Cricket, in St John's Wood, provisionally in late June (exact dates confirmed by the ECB in 2026). To watch an Ashes Test at Lord's, with the famous Pavilion, the slope and the Long Room steeped in history, is one of sport's great occasions, and London fills with cricket fans for the week.

Stay in central London or the leafy north-west near the ground for the shortest trip, and book early — Ashes Tests at Lord's are among the most sought-after tickets in the game, and the whole of the capital is on your doorstep.

History

The Ashes, played between England and Australia since 1882, is Test cricket's most storied rivalry, its name drawn from a mock obituary mourning English cricket after a home defeat, the ashes of which were notionally taken to Australia. Lord's in St John's Wood, north-west London, is the game's most revered ground — the Home of Cricket, owned by Marylebone Cricket Club and in use on its present site since 1814 — and hosts the second Test of the 2027 series.

Its distinctive features include the pronounced slope running across the pitch, the Victorian Pavilion with its hallowed Long Room through which players walk to the middle, and the futuristic media centre above the Nursery End. Australia have historically enjoyed a formidable record at Lord's, a source of long-standing frustration for England. To watch an Ashes Test here is counted among sport's supreme occasions, and its tickets are among the hardest to secure in world cricket.
