The England Rugby 2015 Board has approved a final list of venues for Rugby World Cup 2015, and a 48 game match schedule.

England Rugby 2015 will submit the list of venues, and the full match schedule, to the Rugby World Cup Limited Board next week for discussion and approval.

The approved list of venues and the full match schedule will be published by the end of April.

England Rugby 2015 CEO Debbie Jevans commented; “In the Autumn of 2015, the world’s best Rugby nations will be contesting the Rugby World Cup here in England.

We believe that we have selected a range of excellent and atmospheric venues all around the country to stage one of the world’s biggest sporting events.  Our 48 game match schedule runs from 18th September to 31st October 2015, and the Tournament will celebrate Rugby and all it can offer.

We have had fantastic support from the venues and cities who want to be part of Rugby World Cup 2015 and I’m grateful for all of their input and desire to make this a hugely successful Tournament. 

We look forward to announcing the list of venues and the full schedule by the end of the month.”
