The Women’s Rugby World Cup is back, and 2025 is shaping up to be the biggest tournament in the competition’s history. Sixteen nations. Eight cities. One host country. England has the honour this year, and it’s pulling no punches. For the first time, the tournament spans eight major venues, with games in Sunderland, Brighton, Exeter, Bristol, Northampton, Salford, York and, of course, London.

Bigger, Bolder, and Fully Booked

Even before the first whistle blows the numbers speak for themselves. More teams. More venues. More fans watching from across the globe. This year’s tournament will make history not just for what happens on the pitch but for how it reshapes the game.

England will take on the USA in the opener at the Stadium of Light. Canada face Fiji in Salford. New Zealand launch their campaign against Spain. From day one the fixtures are high stakes and heavy hitters. There is no slow build here. This World Cup means business.
