More than 400,000 tickets will be available for the 10th edition of the pinnacle Women’s event, which kicks off at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland on Friday, August 22, 2025.
That is more than double the amount of tickets available for RWC 2021 (played in 2022) in New Zealand, making England 2025 the biggest and most accessible Women’s Rugby World Cup to date.
Across six weekends from August 22 to September 27, 2025, fans will have the chance to watch the world’s 16 best teams, including recent qualifiers Ireland, compete at eight locations, culminating in a grand finale at the world’s largest dedicated rugby union venue, Twickenham Stadium in London.
In line with World Rugby’s mission to broaden the sport’s appeal, the tournament is anticipated to be the family event of the year.
Ticket prices will range from £5 to £95 across the tournament, with over 60% of tickets under £25, and children’s prices available at every match, including the knockout rounds. Accessible tickets will also be available for all games.
With 95% of the population within two hours’ travel time to a venue, there are more opportunities than ever before for fans to attend from across the host nation.
The demand and growth of Women’s rugby has been evident in recent years, with England achieving a world record crowd of 58,498 at Twickenham when they beat France to secure the 2023 Women’s Six Nations Grand Slam, and the record is expected to be broken at England 2025 next year.
Fans can register for free online to enter the presale on Tuesday, September 24, 2024, to ensure they are among the first to secure their place at the opening match and the highly-anticipated final at Twickenham.
