A France-Ireland clash at the start to set the tone. Fabien Galthié’s Blues have a revenge to take against Andy Farrell’s Greens, defending champions, during the 2024 Six Nations Tournament which will take place from Friday February 2 to Saturday March 16. Due to the work carried out at the Stade de France to prepare for the hosting of the Paris Olympic Games, no matches will be played in this venue.
The Bleues of David Ortiz and Gaëlle Mignot will try to put an end to English supremacy (five consecutive Grand Slams). Their Tournament will run from March 23 to April 27. Franceinfo: sport takes stock of schedules and broadcasts.
