About Six Nations 2027: Scotland v Wales

Scotland host Wales at Scottish Gas Murrayfield on Saturday 13 February, a Six Nations 2027 Celtic clash that brings a big Welsh travelling support north to Edinburgh. Murrayfield sits just west of the centre, an easy tram ride from Princes Street, so a match day pairs naturally with the Old Town, the castle and Edinburgh's pubs and restaurants.

A Six Nations Saturday brings a huge crowd and a brilliant atmosphere to the capital, and rooms fill quickly. Stay central for the walk back into town after the game, and book early for the best choice. The compact centre keeps restaurants, bars and the Royal Mile within walking distance of your base.

History

Scotland host Wales at Murrayfield — now carrying the sponsored name Scottish Gas Murrayfield — in the second round of the 2027 Six Nations, a Celtic clash that brings a big Welsh travelling support north to Edinburgh. The championship grew from the 19th-century Home Nations, became the Five Nations and then, with Italy joining in 2000, the six-team tournament of today.

Murrayfield has been Scottish rugby's home since 1925 and is the nation's largest stadium, holding around 67,000, its great single bowl building a famous atmosphere on a match day, all the more so against near neighbours Wales. The ground lies just west of the city centre, a short tram ride from Princes Street, so the game pairs naturally with the Old Town, the castle and Edinburgh's pubs and restaurants. A Six Nations Saturday fills rooms across the capital, so stay central for the walk back into town and book early for the best choice.
