Ireland rugby fans issued urgent ticket warning ahead of Nations Series and Six Nations

The Irish Rugby Football Union has warned Ireland rugby supporters to exercise extreme caution due to a surge in fraudulent digital ticket sales. The warning comes ahead of upcoming Nations Series matches against Argentina, Fiji, and South Africa, as well as the 2027 Six Nations games against England and France. The union highlighted an increase in scam tickets promoted via unauthorized websites and social media advertisements.

The IRFU stated that Ticketmaster and its Irish Rugby Account Manager are the only authorized ticket platforms. Supporters holding invalid tickets will be denied entry to Aviva Stadium. Fans suspecting fraud are advised to contact their bank, notify An Garda Síochána, and avoid traveling to the stadium.
