Autumn Internationals 2026
What the autumn internationals are now
For decades the autumn internationals were a loose set of November Tests: each home nation arranged its own fixtures against touring southern-hemisphere sides. From 2026 those games are part of the Nations Championship, a competition with standings and a Finals Weekend, so every November Test now counts for something beyond the day.
What has not changed is the shape of the month for supporters. England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland each play three Saturdays or Sundays in November against New Zealand, South Africa, Australia, Argentina, Japan and Fiji, at Twickenham, Murrayfield, the Principality Stadium and the Aviva Stadium, with France and Italy hosting their own Tests on the same weekends. All of it is free to air on ITV and ITVX.
This page keeps the name people search for and links to everything under the new one: the Nations Championship fixtures by round, the TV guide day by day, and each match's how-to-watch page as kick-off approaches.
