Ireland will face England at the Aviva Stadium in the 2027 Women's Six Nations on May 8 while they host France at Dexcom Stadium in Galway on April 17.

Scott Bemand's side open their campaign away to Scotland at Murrayfield on April 10 before that clash with France a week later. Ireland travel to play Wales in Cardiff on April 24. Following a rest weekend, they meet reigning champions England. Their final game will be away to Italy in Parma on May 15.

Earlier this year, Ireland beat Scotland 54-5 in front of a record breaking 31,294 crowd at the Aviva Stadium. 

“Playing at Aviva Stadium last season was an incredible and landmark experience for the group and we’re really excited to be returning to the Home of Irish Rugby in 2027," said Ireland captain Erin King. 

“To have that record-breaking crowd behind us and feel the support from the moment we ran out was really special and we want to continue building that connection with our supporters and bring more people, young and old, into our Green Wave.

“We’re also looking forward to bringing international rugby back to Dexcom Stadium and Galway, where we enjoyed brilliant support in last season’s Guinness Women’s Six Nations.

“These are the occasions you want to be involved in as a player and with two big home matches against France and England coming up in 2027, there is huge motivation for us as a group to produce the occasions and performances that will inspire and excite our Green Wave.”
