Welcome! Bienvenue! Benvenuto!
This year’s Six Nations Championship will be the 20th edition of the six-team format. And what a tournament it promises to be, with three of the top four-ranked sides in the world competing for the title.
To mark two decades of five becoming six, the team at RugbyWorld has put together this compendium of everything you need to know about the Six Nations.
We look back at the greatest moments and biggest heroes for each team since Italy joined in 2000, present weird and wonderful facts about the championship, and offer plenty of travel tips in our guide to each of the host cities. After all, the fans are what make this tournament so special.
We hope this whets your appetite for what is poised to be a superb Six Nations.
