Adelaide is set to welcome rugby fans from all over the world when the Men's Rugby World Cup Australia 2027 arrives. As one of the official host cities, we are gearing up to deliver a festival of all things rugby — no matter your country, no matter your colours.

You'll get waved into the pub to catch the action, pulling up a seat as a locally sourced drop is poured for you.

That's just how life works here — people take their time, make room for conversation and always offer up a seat at the table. When it's all done, discover the food, coastlines, and regions that make this place special. Whether you’re a lifelong supporter or just getting swept up in the excitement, the 2027 Men’s Rugby World Cup is your chance to feel the energy, join the atmosphere and make memories that last long after the final whistle.
