About Six Nations 2027: Wales v England

Wales host England at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday 6 March — one of the Six Nations 2027's biggest weekends, a fierce rivalry in a city-centre ground with a vast England travelling support. Uniquely among the championship's grounds, the Principality Stadium sits right in the centre of Cardiff, so you can walk from your hotel to your seat past the pubs and singing crowds of St Mary Street — the atmosphere with the roof closed is among the best in world rugby.

Cardiff's rooms book out fast for a Six Nations Saturday. Stay central for the full occasion, with Cardiff Bay and the castle to fill the rest of the weekend, and book early — a city-centre stay means everything is a short walk from the ground.

History

Wales and England first met in 1881, making this one of the oldest rivalries in international rugby and, for many on both sides, the fixture of the championship. More than a century of history rides on it, from Grand Slam deciders to famous upsets, and a Cardiff staging turns the whole city into a single roaring occasion.

The Principality Stadium, opened in 1999 on the site of the old National Stadium at Cardiff Arms Park, seats close to 74,000 beneath a retractable roof that, when closed, traps the sound into a wall of noise widely rated among the loudest in the sport. Its city-centre location is unique among the championship's grounds: supporters walk from the pubs of St Mary Street to their seats in minutes, and the singing spills out across the capital all day.

A vast England travelling support crosses the Severn for this one, rooms sell out fast, and booking early is the only way to stay central for the full experience.

About Principality Stadium

Wales's national stadium sits dramatically in the heart of Cardiff, its retractable roof rising above the River Taff, hosting rugby and football internationals plus the biggest touring concerts. Few major venues are so central: the stadium stands in Cardiff city centre, with Cardiff Central station to the south and the bars, shops and restaurants of St Mary Street to the east.

Cardiff Central station is a short walk away, linking across Wales and to England. Booking a room in the compact centre means you can walk to the event through the pre-match buzz and back again afterwards.
