The 2026 Men's Six Nations Championship (known as the Guinness Men's Six Nations for sponsorship reasons and branded as M6N) was a rugby union competition that took place from early February to mid-March 2026, featuring the men's national teams of England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales. It was the 132nd season of the competition (including its prior incarnations as the Home Nations Championship and the Five Nations Championship), and the 27th since it expanded to become the Six Nations Championship in 2000. It began on 5 February 2026 with a Thursday night match between France and Ireland, and ended with France against England on 14 March.[1]

France entered the tournament as reigning champions, and secured a second successive title with the final kick of the final match, a penalty by the competition's top scorer, Thomas Ramos, easing France past England 48–46, and edging out repeat Triple Crown winners Ireland by two table points. Other notable results included Italy's first ever win over England, a record-breaking 50–40 victory for Scotland over France and the end of a 15-match losing streak in the championship by Wales, who beat Italy on the last day.

Table ranking rules[2]

  • Four points are awarded for a win.
  • Two points are awarded for a draw.
  • A bonus point is awarded to a team that scores four or more tries, or loses by seven points or fewer. If a team scores four or more tries, and loses by seven points or fewer, they are awarded both bonus points.
  • Three bonus points are awarded to a team that wins all five of their matches (a Grand Slam). This ensures that a Grand Slam-winning team would top the table with at least 23 points, as there would otherwise be a scenario where a team could win all five matches with no bonus points for a total of 20 points and another team could win four matches with bonus points and lose their fifth match while claiming one or more bonus points giving a total of 21 or 22 points.
  • Tiebreakers
    • If two or more teams are tied on table points, the team with the better points difference (points scored less points conceded) is ranked higher.
    • If the above tiebreaker fails to separate tied teams, the team that scores the higher number of total tries (including penalty tries) in their matches is ranked higher.
    • If two or more teams remain tied after applying the above tiebreakers then those teams will be placed at equal rank; if the tournament has concluded and more than one team is placed first then the title will be shared between them.

Fixtures

The fixtures for the 2026 Six Nations were announced on 19 May 2025, beginning with the Six Nations' first ever Thursday night game between France and Ireland. It also featured the first ever Friday night game in Dublin as Ireland hosted Wales in the fourth round of matches.[1] The competition is also set to take place over a reduced timeframe; instead of having rest weeks after rounds 2 and 3, it only had a rest week after round 3.
