The 2025 Rugby Championship Fixtures Confirmed

The fixtures for the 2025 Rugby Championship have been confirmed, however, the venue and times for the fixtures in South Africa and Argentina are still unconfirmed.

On 28 September, South Africa won the championship for the first time since 2019 after a 48-7 win against Argentina, claiming five wins from six matches after defeating Australia and New Zealand twice and Argentina once.

SANZAAR confirmed in June 2022 that the 12-match schedule for The Rugby Championship (TRC) would comprise an innovative 'mini-tour' format that is a departure from the previous home and away structure that had been in place since 2012 when Argentina joined Australia, New Zealand and South Africa to create The Rugby Championship.

Each team will still play six matches comprising three home matches and three away matches, and will play each team twice. However, each team will host a two-match tour, will play an away two-match tour and a one-match home and away series against the third team. 

The mini-tour concept is locked in until the end of 2025.
