World Rugby is now on a mission to innovate to excite, inspire and engage new audiences in existing and new rugby markets, to grow the sport for all. Through World Rugby Events (EventsCo), the delivery of major tournaments under a new model will be key to the success of a ten-year strategic plan which will see Rugby World Cups in England in 2025, Australia in 2027 & 2029, and culminating in groundbreaking tournaments in the USA in 2031 and 2033. Under the new model, World Rugby will have a more direct role in the setting up, running and delivery of the Rugby World Cups and aims to be the leader in the delivery of major international events.
