South African rugby supporters will have their chance to secure seats to some of this season’s biggest Test matches. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 9am for the Springboks’ 2025 Rugby Championship home fixtures.

Premium Prices for Australia Clashes

Fans keen to witness the Boks clash with the Wallabies in Johannesburg and Cape Town will need to dig deep into their wallets. The most affordable tickets for both fixtures start at R525. These two high-stakes encounters are scheduled for 16 August at Ellis Park and 23 August at Cape Town Stadium. They promise a fierce contest between two former world champions.

The steep pricing reflects the growing demand to see the Springboks. They remain one of the most formidable sides in global rugby following their back-to-back World Cup triumphs.

Argentina Test in Durban Offers More Value

In contrast, supporters looking for a more budget-friendly option may turn their attention to the Springboks’ only other home fixture in the Rugby Championship – against Argentina. Set to take place at Kings Park Stadium in Durban on 27 September, tickets for this fixture are significantly more affordable. Prices start at just R250.

This match not only offers a cost-effective alternative for fans but also promises quality rugby. The Pumas are always a competitive side in the southern hemisphere tournament.
