ORGANISERS of the Women's Rugby World Cup expect next month's Twickenham final to smash the attendance record for a women’s rugby match.

England expects! Big crowds will be a boost

Tickets for the match on Saturday, September 27 have sold out, with approximately 82,000 supporters set to be at Allianz Stadium in southwest London.

The existing record for a women’s 15s fixture is 58,498, set as England clinched the 2023 Six Nations Grand Slam by beating France 38-33 at Twickenham.

At the Paris 2024 Olympics, a crowd of 66,000 watched the opening day of the women’s rugby sevens programme at Stade de France.

Governing body World Rugby believes it could have sold out the World Cup final, which will be immediately preceded by the bronze medal match, two or three times over.
