MEN'S RUGBY WORLD CUP 2027 - HOST CITY
BRISBANE | MEEANJIN
Set along the winding Brisbane River, Brisbane (also known as Meeanjin) will be one of the key host cities for Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027, offering a lively mix of top-class rugby, relaxed urban culture and easy access to some of Queensland’s most spectacular natural attractions.
Matches will be played at Brisbane Stadium, Australia’s leading rectangular venue, located close to the city centre and easily reached via the popular Caxton Street precinct. On match days, this area comes alive with rugby supporters, creating one of the most atmospheric settings in the tournament.
Away from the stadium, Brisbane offers visitors a vibrant food scene, riverside walks, leafy parks and a thriving arts and cultural quarter. The city’s mild spring weather in October and November makes it ideal for outdoor dining, sightseeing and pre- or post-match socialising.
Brisbane also has a strong rugby pedigree. The city has previously hosted matches at Men’s Rugby World Cup 1987 and Men’s Rugby World Cup 2003, as well as regular international fixtures over many decades, making it a familiar and welcoming destination for travelling rugby supporters.
For fans combining rugby with exploration, Brisbane is the perfect gateway to Queensland’s highlights, including nearby islands, national parks and World Heritage-listed rainforests.
