Wales announce ticket prices and details for summer World Cup warm-up games against England and South Africa

Wales have announced their ticket price structure and a new lead sponsor for their summer World Cup warm-up games against England and South Africa in Cardiff.

The WRU say there will be a “larger volume of lower priced tickets available to supporters", with the existing five price categories reduced to three. The 50% reduction for U17s introduced for the Autumn Tests will be applicable, too.

Wales face England on Saturday August 5, before a clash with world champions South Africa on Saturday August 19.

The opening game against England will be priced at £80, £60 and £40, and can be accessed for half price for under 17s.

For South Africa, tickets will be priced at £60, £40 and £20, with the concessions available again.

The games will be sponsored by Vodafone, who are already an official partner for the WRU.

Nigel Walker, WRU interim group CEO said, “It’s going to be an epic summer of rugby.”

Tickets go on public sale from Wednesday April 19 and can be purchased from the WRU's website from that date. However, tickets can be purchased already from local rugby clubs across Wales.

After the summer friendlies Warren Gatland's team head to France where they meet Australia, Georgia, Fiji and Portugal. They are expected to reach the quarter-finals, where either England or Argentina are likely to await.

The world's top sides, France, South Africa, Ireland and New Zealand are in the other half of a lopsided draw, with two of them unable to proceed beyond the last eight.
