EXCLUSIVE: 24-hour ticket pre-sale for Springboks vs Japan

The world champion Springboks will return to the iconic Wembley Stadium this November to face Japan in a highly anticipated clash, kicking off both teams’ northern hemisphere tours.

The match will take place on Saturday, 1 November, with kick-off at 16:10 (UK time).

This historic fixture will mark the first rugby game at Wembley since 2016, when South Africa drew 31-31 with the Barbarians.

It will also evoke memories of the 2015 Rugby World Cup’s “Miracle of Brighton,” when Japan shocked the rugby world by defeating the Springboks.

The match will feature two tactical masterminds: Rassie Erasmus leading South Africa and Eddie Jones returning to guide Japan.

Their coaching rivalry promises fireworks as both teams aim to set the tone for a successful end-of-year tour.

A Global Stage for Rugby

Wembley, one of the most famous stadiums in the world, will host a full-capacity crowd in what is expected to be a thrilling international spectacle.

“This match is more than a game – it’s a celebration of world-class rugby in a world-class venue,” organisers said.

Fans can look forward to watching some of the biggest names in international rugby in a festival-like atmosphere beneath Wembley’s iconic arch.
