Where to watch
The 2026 Six Nations will air in the US on Peacock.
Defending champions France go in search of back-to-back triumphs as the Six Nations gets underway this weekend in what looks set to potentially be an even tighter tournament than last year's nail-biter.
While Les Bleus come into the tournament as favorites to repeat last year's triumph, but face serious competition from an England team currently on an 11-match winning run, with Steve Borthwick's men desperate to make amends after missing out on the 2025 title by a single point.
Having claimed the Triple Crown in 2024, Andy Farrell's Ireland will meanwhile be looking to bounce back after last year's third-place finish and a disappointing showing in the recent Autumn Nations Series, while a promising looking Scotland team will hoping to deliver some consistency as they look to improve upon last year's fourth place finish.
The 2026 Six Nations takes place over five weeks and 15 matches, starting with the opening fixture between France and Ireland at the Stade de France in Paris on Thursday, Feb. 5, and ending with the concluding game between France and England on Saturday, March 14. A full list of matches can be found at the foot of the page.
