‘Superfan Passes’ Sell Out In Less Than A Minute!

World Rugby has announced that the Superfan Passes for the Rugby World Cup – Australia 2027 have sold out in less than a minute.

The sale begun on August 5 at 2pm Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) (UTC+10).

There were only 2027 Superfan Passes on sale. Superfan Passes are not match tickets but are personal non-transferable passes that gave the buyer guaranteed access in February 2026 but before the closed pre-sale to purchase up to 4 tickets per match for any match up to a total maximum of 52 tickets.

The announcement was made on August 5 at 2:01pm AEST (UTC+10) – indicating they sold out in less than a minute.

The Rugby World Cup – Australia 2027 will begin on Friday the 1st of October 2027, with its final on Saturday the 13th of November 2027.

We were delighted to introduce last week the Superfan Passes, an exciting innovation & a 1st at a Rugby World Cup, in direct response to what we’ve consistently heard from fans: a desire for certainty & a way to truly go all-in on the tournament – but we obviously didn’t expect such a phenomenal response. To see all Superfan Passes sell out in under an hour shows just how excited fans are to be part of the biggest Rugby World Cup ever organised & this once-in-a-generation celebration of rugby in Australia.
