Ireland is set to kick off their 2025 Six Nations campaign at the Aviva Stadium, hosting England on the 1st of February, with the final match being away in Rome against Italy on St Patrick’s weekend. The tournament will commence on the 31st of January when France competes against Wales.

Ireland’s second match, with an eight-day separation, is scheduled against Scotland at Murrayfield at 3pm on the 8th of February. Following the first break weekend, the Irish team will again be on the road to Cardiff, playing on the 22nd of February at 2.15. They will get another weekend off afterward.

The final two weekends of the competition will witness Ireland playing against France at home at 2.15 on the 8th of March before their journey to Rome to compete against Italy at Stadio Olimpico at 2.15pm on the 15th of March. All the above times are based on Irish Standard Time.

The 2025 Six Nations Championship itinerary, from Ireland’s perspective, thus promises an exciting line-up of games with challenging competitors.
