    Look at flying&train through London/Brussels. I’m in London on Friday anyway so getting Eurostar over and then early Air France flight back to Dublin on Sunday for €90. Early start though, good thing there wont be beer in the stadium 😅

    I've done Swiss air via Zurich in the past as a cheaper option.

    Just on Paris, will the stands/huts outside the stadium be allowed serve drink? Had planned heading out a bit early for a few before the game rather than staying in the city.

    Longterm lurker, what are the chances of a non-club, non-supporters club member getting 3 tickets for the Wales match? Slim to none or do people reckon they'll go on general sale?

    Not a hope for a home game

    Disagree.


    If the All blacks game had tickets on general sale 2 months ago, then I expect tickets for this 6ns to be very easy to get, and will be on general sale at some point imo.

    A lot of them serve non alcoholic beer too as they're connected to the stadium

    Disagree

    6 Nations tickets are cheaper

    6 Nations is a competition, unlike the autumn internationals

    No home 6 Nations games accessible to the public since March 2020.

    Italy probably will go to public sale, doubt the rest will, beyond a few very last minute tickets as normal

    yeh, above is correct. The marketing behind the 6 Nations is something else. It’s a no hoper for non-touted tickets

    You've just mentioned one of the big reasons tickets will be easier to get... Touts. Almost impossible for touts to gouge because of:

    A) new legislation in effect. Makes online touting almost non existent

    B) tickets will be etickets

    Add to that:

    C) corporate interest in tickets down significantly on previous years

    D) shorter window to get tickets sold

    E) some older fans will still be staying away from stadia for now for covid reasons

    F) Home games for us are Wales, Scotland and Italy. Our 3 home games year vs 2 home games in other years where it's England and France we play. Those years demand is always higher coz it's only 2 games and against better (usually) opposition.


    Tickets will be easy to get for anyone who has their heart set on going. Keep an eye on this thread and have ticketmaster website/app at the ready.

    Alternatively keep an eye on toutless.com

    That site will have an abundance of unwanted tickets from people who's plans change for whatever reason.

    I mean. Yeh if the guy wants to spend 4 figures on a ticket fair play to him

    Good luck getting one on toutless where thousands will be onto someone the second a ticket goes up

    See some travel agents are doing packages for home games with ticket and 1 night stay in hotel. Wonder how many tickets they get? If people were planning on staying in Dublin anyway might not be the worst option but still likely paying over the odds for the accommodation.

    Managed to get 2 tickets for both the Wales & Scotland games in 2020 on Ticketmaster on the Tuesday before each game. You literally have to refresh every few minutes though

    There was beer tents set up down the road from the stadium when I was there a few years back, decent festival feeling. Plenty of fans and good craic. If you head out people will be there, though it is akin so a few tents set up in Sandyford industrial estate, not loads in terms of proper pubs.

    What he said.

    The best you can hope for is picking up a late return the week of the game. You'll need to be camped on TM and might not get three together.

    Yeah that’s where we went the year of ‘le drop’ so hoping it’s still on with the COVID crap.

    Just had a look at one of them. Says "From €399 per person" for the match v Scotland, for a package including a Category 2 ticket. IIRC, a Cat. 2 ticket is €90 by itself. so that's €309 p.p. for a room, probably based on two sharing, so a total of €618 to actually have a room for the night.

    Same place says Cat. 1 ticket upgrade available for €75 p.p. Again IIRC, Cat. 1 ticket is €110, so should only be a €20 difference. Looks to me like a bit of gouging going on.

    There is probably a lot less take up of corporate tickets because of covid so you might well find them on general sale at some stage alright.
