The XV of France will host three matches and will travel twice.
For this edition, the Blues will face Ireland at home in the opening match.
They will also host Italy and England and travel to Scotland and Wales.
The 2023 version of the VI Nations Tournament is not yet over and we already know the schedule for the next edition.
For the 2024 Tournament, France and Ireland, who currently dominate world rugby, will face each other from the first day, Friday evening February 2, the organizers of the competition announced on Tuesday.
This clash between the top two in the current World Rugby rankings will take place in France, in a location yet to be determined since no event will take place at the Stade de France in 2024 before the Paris Olympics.
