Black Ferns
The Black Ferns will welcome France back to Aotearoa New Zealand for a blockbuster three-Test home series in 2026, as part of the new WXV Global Series.
The series headlines a four-match home schedule that will take international rugby to fans nationwide, with Tests being played across the year in Auckland against Australia, and Hamilton, Whangārei and Christchurch against France.
Between August and the end of October fans from north to south will get to see their World Cup heroes and rising stars.
