    Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch will host the four home All Blacks tests next year

    Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch will host the four home All Blacks tests next year


    The All Blacks will open their season at Christchurch's new stadium on July 4th against France.

    The capital welcomes Italy on July 11th at what's being dubbed a family-friendly time of 5:10pm.

    The All Blacks have not played Italy in New Zealand since 2009, while they've never played against each other in the capital.

    Auckland hosts the final two home tests of 2026, with Ireland to visit Eden Park on July 18th and Australia on October 10th.
