France's home fixture against Ireland will launch the 2026 Guinness Six Nations, with the shortened tournament unfolding over just six weeks and opening on a Thursday for the first time.
The clash between Antoine Dupont's champions and one of their main rivals for the title takes place on February 5, most likely at the Stade de France, pending the conclusion of negotiations with the French Rugby Federation (FFR).
The schedule for the 2026 Six Nations is the first to feature only one fallow week rather than the customary two.
