Confirmed: Springboks 2025 Rugby Fixtures Championship Schedule

The 2025 Rugby Championship match schedule has been locked in, with the Springboks set for a blockbuster campaign that includes two home games against Australia and a London showdown with Argentina.

All four teams will once again compete under the mini-tour format, where each nation plays six games – three at home and three away. The structure sees every side host and tour another for two-Test series, while alternating single fixtures are played against the fourth opponent.

For South Africa, the campaign kicks off with two home clashes against the Wallabies at Ellis Park and Cape Town Stadium in August. The Springboks will then travel to New Zealand for back-to-back away matches in Auckland and Wellington in September.

They’ll wrap up their tournament with a home fixture in Durban against the Pumas and then face them again in London on October 4. This Twickenham Test will mark only the second Rugby Championship match to be held outside the traditional Sanzaar nations.

The Wallabies are set to host Argentina twice before taking on New Zealand in two home-and-away Bledisloe Cup fixtures in Perth and Auckland. Meanwhile, the All Blacks start their tour in Argentina and return home to host the Boks.

The final round of the competition will be a major drawcard, with fierce rivalries and neutral venues sure to add drama.
