2024 Six Nations Championship

The 2024 Six Nations Championship (known as the Guinness Men's Six Nations for sponsorship reasons) was a rugby union competition that took place in February and March 2024, and featured the men's national teams of England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales. It was the 130th season of the competition (including its incarnations as the Home Nations Championship and the Five Nations Championship), but the 25th since it expanded to become the Six Nations Championship in 2000. It started on 2 February 2024 with a Friday night match between France and Ireland, and concluded with France against England on 16 March. France played their home fixtures away from their normal venue, the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, as the stadium was being prepared for use in the 2024 Summer Olympics later in the year.

Ireland entered the competition as reigning champions, having won the Grand Slam for the fourth time in 2023. They retained the championship – the third time they had won back-to-back championships, having done so previously in 1949 and 2015 – but did not secure a second successive Grand Slam. Wales finished bottom of the table, and was also the only team not to win any of their five matches.

Table ranking rules

The fixtures for the 2024 Six Nations were announced on 28 February 2023, beginning with France hosting Ireland in a Friday night clash at the Stade Vélodrome in Marseille on 2 February 2024. The final round of matches was played on 16 March 2024, beginning with Wales vs Italy, followed by Ireland vs Scotland and France vs England.
