Rugby World Cup 2019 in Japan

Posted on by admin

As you may know, the Rugby World Cup 2019 will be held in 12 cities across Japan between 20 Sep and 2 Nov next year. The Japanese people are proud to be hosting this pinnacle event for rugby players around the world. We are also looking forward to welcoming people from all over the world and together with the visitors, enjoy the third largest sporting event in the world after the Summer Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup.

The match schedules for the All Blacks and the Wallabies are shown below.

The All Blacks and the Wallabies will be playing in a maximum of seven matches spread across 43 days during the competition. As you can see from the above, there is a total of 36 days between the matches, making these days ideal for travelling around Japan as you wait for your team’s next match.

If you have already travelled in Japan several times before, you may be comfortable to travel around on your own while you are in Japan for the Rugby World Cup, and purchase the tickets for the games. For those who prefer this option, the second round of public ticket sales start from 19 January 2019 on the official ticketing website: (https://tickets.rugbyworldcup.com/). You can also get useful information on the host cities and touring destinations around the venues on the official website: (https://www.rugbyworldcup.com/cities).

If you are not familiar with travelling in Japan, it may be a good idea to join one of the official supporter tours which include tickets for the games. You can find links to the official supporter tour websites by visiting the official Rugby World Cup website (https://www.rugbyworldcup.com/buy-official). You may be able to find the most suitable tour for your schedule, and information on other activities and attractions among a wide variety of tour options.

If your city or organisation has any connections with the host cities of the Rugby World Cup 2019, it may be an excellent opportunity to further develop these existing ties.

The Japanese people know very well that the Rugby World Cup is a very special event for Australians and New Zealanders, and we wholeheartedly welcome your visit to all areas of Japan in the exciting weeks of the Rugby World Cup.
