An autumn international brings two rugby nations together for an afternoon of set-piece battles and open running rugby. Expect a mix of travelling support, families and rugby regulars who treat this as a fixed date in the calendar. September fixtures like this often carry extra weight as a first look at both sides ahead of the busier autumn schedule.

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, with the city's bars, shops and restaurants literally on the doorstep. 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 be back within minutes afterwards.
