The Six Nations

The Six Nations (01 Feb – 14 Mar 2020) – an annual international rugby union competition between England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales – is a firm favourite in any rugby fan’s calendar. Last year’s champions were the Welsh squad, and this year the first fixture kicks off in Cardiff between the current winners and Italy. Each year we watch with excitement as our favourite teams compete to win the prestigious championship trophy.

With thousands of people excited to attend the match, you must plan your transport ahead of time. We will work with you to select the best drop-off and pick-up locations and plan a route to avoid the hectic rush before and after the match.
