Prices vary by match, category and sales phase. Do not treat a starting price as a guarantee that a popular fixture will still have inventory.

How does the ticket ballot work?

The ballot is used when demand exceeds the tickets available in a match or category.

The system is intended to avoid a first-click advantage for oversubscribed matches. Register through the official ticketing route, read the application window and keep payment details ready before the deadline.

How many tickets can one purchaser buy?

Most matches allow up to ten tickets in the presale, but popular matches are limited to six per purchaser.

The lower limit applies to Australia pool matches, semifinals and the final. Limits can differ by phase, so the current official terms control.

Where will the tournament be played?

World Rugby lists eight stadiums across seven Australian cities.

The host list includes Adelaide Oval, Brisbane Stadium, Docklands Stadium in Melbourne, Newcastle Stadium, Perth Stadium, Sydney Football Stadium, Stadium Australia and North Queensland Stadium in Townsville. Match assignments and transport plans should be checked against the current schedule.

Are official travel packages available?

Yes. World Rugby authorised 15 official travel agents across nine countries to sell packages combining accommodation, travel and match tickets.

Packages cost more than a ticket alone but can reduce the risk of separately arranging hotels and transport during a high-demand tournament.
