Overview
Rugby’s greatest rivalry returns with an iconic tour staged once every four years, alternating between South Africa and New Zealand. The next chapter unfolds in August–September 2026, when New Zealand tours South Africa for a blockbuster series featuring eight matches, including four Test encounters at Ellis Park (Johannesburg), DHL Stadium (Cape Town), FNB Stadium (Johannesburg), and a historic fourth Test at an international venue. Along the way, New Zealand will also take on four leading franchise sides: the DHL Stormers, Hollywoodbets Sharks, Vodacom Bulls, and the Lions. In 2030, the rivalry shifts to New Zealand, where South Africa will embark on their first professional-era tour of the country, combining a Test series with matches against provincial teams. A legendary contest, renewed.
