Welcome to the Historic Allianz Stadium Rugby Match!
Get ready for an unforgettable experience as Italy’s national rugby team goes head-to-head with New Zealand’s All Blacks in a test match at Turin’s iconic Allianz Stadium on Saturday, November 23, 2024.
This game is not just any ordinary match, it marks a significant milestone for Italian rugby as Allianz Stadium, the home ground of Serie A club Juventus, will host a non-football sporting event for the very first time.
The decision to open the doors of the stadium to rugby showcases the increasing popularity of the sport in Italy.
Scheduled at 21:10 local time, the Italy vs New Zealand game will be the highlight of the 2024 Autumn Nations Series, the third and final match of the series.
This will be the ninth time the All Blacks will be playing on Italian soil, with their previous encounters resulting in victory for the New Zealand team. The most recent match between the two teams was held in Rome in 2021.
Looking ahead to the next year, Stadio Olimpico in Rome will host three Six Nations games as part of the 2025 championship edition. The Azzurri will compete against Wales, France, and defending champions Ireland on various dates in February and March.
For those eager to witness this epic clash between Italy and the All Blacks, ticket information can be found on the Federazione Italiana Rugby website.
