Wales vs France live stream: How to watch 2024 Six Nations online

Welsh captain Dafydd Jenkins passes the ball in the 2024 Six Nations ahead of the Wales vs France live stream.

Watch a Wales vs France live stream to see the Six Nations 2024's two most disappointing sides trying to salvage some pride, and give both coaches something to work with in the months ahead. The majestic Principality Stadium awaits, and you can watch from anywhere with a VPN.

If Wales' comeback against Scotland on the opening weekend was valiant and their narrow loss to England was unfortunate, their 31-7 loss at the hands of a rampant Ireland a fortnight ago was nothing less than brutal. There's no shame in losing to the in-form champions, but Warren Gatland's men conceded three tries in the first half and never really looked in the game.

France had a very different round 3, hosting Italy — a side to whom they have never lost at home in the Six Nations. A hard fought game in Lille saw the Antoine Dupont-less French being taken to the wire by the Azzurri, who were a post-width away from an embarrassing defeat. But the 13-13 draw is still worrying enough for a team that went into their home World Cup as favorites only six months ago.

A Six Nations championship is realistically out of reach of both sides, so this will be a showcase for some of the more youthful players to display their talents and try and cement their place in their coaches' XVs.

Read on and we'll show you how to access Wales vs France live streams, and watch the 2024 Six Nations wherever you are this Sunday.

FREE Wales vs France live streams

If you live in the U.K., then you can enjoy a Wales vs France live stream for FREE. The game will be shown on BBC One and via its streaming service BBC iPlayer at 3 p.m. GMT on Sunday, March 10.

In fact, all 15 games of the 2024 Six Nations will be broadcast on either the BBC or ITV, and via their streaming services BBC iPlayer and ITVX. Just bear in mind that you will need a valid U.K. TV license in order to watch the games live on TV or via online streaming.

If you want to watch this with Welsh language commentary, then S4C will be showing Wales vs France live and via the BBC iPlayer online.

Viewers in Ireland can also watch a Wales vs France live stream for free on RTÉ Player.

But what if you're usually based in the U.K. or Ireland but aren't at home for the Wales vs France live stream? Perhaps, you're on holiday and don't want to spend money on a paid streaming service in a foreign country when you'd usually be able to watch for free at home.

Don't worry — you can watch it via a VPN instead. We'll show you how to do that below. Our favorite VPN service right now is NordVPN, but you'll find others in our best VPN services list.

Watch Wales vs France from anywhere

Away from the U.K. at the moment and blocked from watching the rugby on BBC iPlayer?

You can still watch a Wales vs France live stream thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for rugby fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:

It's really very easy to use a VPN to watch live sport when overseas:

1. Install the VPN of your choice. We think NordVPN is among the best you can get.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. So if you're a U.K. citizen abroad, for example, choose a server location based in the U.K.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Go to BBC iPlayer on your web browser or app and watch the free Wales vs France live stream as you would at home.
