Warren Gatland’s Wales begin final preparations for the 2023 Rugby World Cup by taking on England in Cardiff on Saturday 5th August, kick-off 5.30pm.
Next the senior men’s side travel to Twickenham to reverse the clash (Saturday 12th August, 5.30pm), before returning to Principality Stadium to face South Africa a week later on Saturday 19th August at 3.15pm, in the final round of Wales’ summer campaign.
Warm-up fixtures don’t come any tougher than back-to-back, home-and-away, meetings with England and the Vodafone Summer Series climaxes with the ultimate test for Gatland’s charges, a visit from the world champion Springboks in Wales’ last match on home soil before heading to the World Cup in France.
To watch the Springboks children pay from just £10 (£20 adults) and prices to see England in Cardiff start at £20 for U17s (£40 adults).
In fact all three of Principality Stadium’s new ticket categories are available at a 50% reduction for U17s, meaning the England match on Saturday 5th August, which is priced at £40, £60 and £80, can be accessed for £20, £30 and £40 by children.
For the South Africa match, on Saturday 19th August supporters can attend for £20, £40 or £60, with U17s pricing therefore at £10, £20 and £30.
Louis Rees-Zammit of Wales runs in to score try.
A new re-categorisation of the Stadium sees the existing five price categories reduced to three, simplifying the order process and dramatically increasing the volume of lower priced tickets for supporters.
“With two Saturday afternoon kick-off times confirmed these fixtures will generate wide appeal with Welsh rugby supporters across the country,” said interim WRU Group CEO Nigel Walker.
“Our ambition is to make our tickets as accessible as possible in order to give Warren Gatland and his side the very best send-off possible ahead of the World Cup in France.
“It’s going to be an epic summer of rugby and these are two huge games against the world champion South Africans and England, which is always a game everyone wants to see.
“The best place to buy a ticket for any Wales rugby international is always from WRU member clubs, but the ticket office is now fully open for business for those supporters who want to access their tickets directly.”
A family of four rugby fans (two adults and two children) can watch Wales take on the current world champions South Africa for a total of £60-per-family, and watch Wales take on England for a total of £120-per-family.
Public sale tickets will be available from WRU.WALES/TICKETS from Wednesday 19th April.
