Anticipation for the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 continues to soar, with more than 275,000 tickets already snapped up ahead of the tournament. In response to overwhelming demand, organisers have confirmed a new wave of ticket sales beginning in May.

Fans will have another opportunity to secure their place at this historic event when additional tickets are released to the public at 09:00 (BST) on Wednesday, 14 May, coinciding with the tournament’s 100-day countdown. Tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis at tickets.rugbyworldcup.com.

Ahead of the public sale, an exclusive ticket window will open for fans who were unsuccessful during last year’s application phase. This pre-sale runs from 7 May at 11:00 (BST) to 9 May at 11:00 (BST), with eligible individuals receiving advance notification via email.

Tickets will be available for all matches, including high-demand fixtures such as the final in London, England v Australia in Brighton, and England v Samoa in Northampton, following final confirmation of venue capacities.

Sarah Massey, Managing Director of the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025, expressed her excitement at the growing momentum:

“Excitement is building across the country and beyond as we approach the 100 days to go milestone. With over 275,000 tickets already sold, it’s clear fans are ready to make this the biggest tournament yet. We’re thrilled to offer fans another chance to be part of the celebrations. Whether you’re a lifelong rugby supporter or a first-time attendee, this promises to be an unforgettable experience.”

Survey data highlights the event's broad appeal:

89% of ticket buyers are based in the UK

11% are international fans

An even split between male and female purchasers

35% of fans will be attending a women’s professional rugby match for the first time

30% plan to attend in all- or mostly-female groups

To maintain a secure and fair experience, organisers urge fans to only purchase tickets through official sources. A resale platform will launch on 24 June, allowing supporters who can no longer attend to sell their tickets at face value via the official site.

Premium hospitality packages, offering enhanced matchday experiences, are also available at experiences.rugbyworldcup.com.

With unprecedented demand and the tournament poised to set new records, the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 is shaping up to be the most celebrated edition in the history of the sport.
