All Blacks 2024 test schedule announced

The All Blacks, under new Head Coach Scott Robertson, have a packed 14-Test season in 2024, starting with a game against England in Dunedin on July 6.

That match at Forsyth Barr Stadium is the first of three Steinlager Ultra Low Carb Series Tests. The second game is also against England, at Eden Park in Auckland, followed by a unique match in San Diego against Fiji.

The team will then play two back-to-back Tests against Argentina in Wellington and Auckland, as part of the Lipovitan-D Rugby Championship. This is followed by matches against the Springboks in South Africa, and Bledisloe Cup Tests in Sydney and Wellington. The season concludes with a Northern Tour featuring games against Japan, England, Ireland, France, and Italy.

The matches will be broadcast live and exclusively in New Zealand on Sky TV. Tickets for the Steinlager Ultra Low Carb Series and the Lipovitan-D Rugby Championship will be available for sale on May 29 and June 19, respectively.

NZR CEO Mark Robinson said he was excited about starting the season in New Zealand and taking the team to San Diego for a match against Fiji. This move is part of a strategy to increase rugby’s visibility in North America and build brand presence ahead of the Rugby World Cups in 2031 and 2033.
