For many, the attraction of the event extends well beyond the 80 minutes of live action.

It’s an opportunity to dive into the distinct culture of six vibrant capital cities, to enjoy a pre-match drink with rival supporters, and to experience the thrilling atmosphere that only live rugby can deliver.

Among the highlights is a visit to the Eternal City, to witness the match in Rome’s iconic venue.
