Experience the excitement, anticipation and camaraderie of Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 at its most decisive — the two quarter-finals at Brisbane Stadium and both semi-finals at Stadium Australia — the stage of the Rugby World Cup where every point counts and where history is written.
Follow the path to the final across four knockout matches alongside fellow rugby supporters on a 9-night small group tour down the east coast from 29 October to 7 November 2027. The journey begins with three nights in Brisbane for both quarter-finals at Brisbane Stadium, continues south on a guided coach journey through some of New South Wales’ most beautiful coastal towns, and concludes with three nights in Sydney for both semi-finals at Stadium Australia. Led throughout by a dedicated Events Travel tour manager, the tour brings together world-class rugby, 4-star accommodation and the relaxed character of the Australian east coast in mid-spring.
Three nights at the Hotel Grand Chancellor Brisbane begin the experience, with a welcome dinner on arrival and official Cat. 4 tickets (with optional upgrades) to both Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 quarter-finals at Brisbane Stadium on Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 October. From Brisbane, the tour travels south down the Gold Coast and on to Byron Bay for an overnight at the Beachcomber Resort with a two-course group dinner on the New South Wales north coast. The journey continues to Coffs Harbour for a night at the Opal Cove Resort with an afternoon local tour, then on through the Grafton Jacaranda Festival and Myall Lakes National Park to Port Stephens for an overnight at Oaks Port Stephens, with dinner at the Blue Water Grill.
The tour concludes with three nights at the popular Caption by Hyatt Sydney for both Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 semi-finals at Stadium Australia on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 November. Match day transport is included on both evenings — coach service to the venue on Friday and a private river transfer from Darling Harbour to Stadium Australia on Saturday.
Small group tours are about the people you travel with as much as the matches. With group sizes kept deliberately small and a dedicated Events Travel tour manager throughout, the tour is built for the rugby camaraderie that defines World Cup travel — shared dinners, post-match debriefs, new friendships formed across nine nights on the road, and the kind of tournament fever that only builds when fellow supporters travel together. For Australians and international visitors alike, the route from Brisbane down through the Gold Coast, the New South Wales north coast and into Sydney is the perfect way to combine Australia’s beautiful east coast with the most decisive matches of the rugby calendar in a single trip — backed by Events Travel’s status as an Official Travel Agent for the Rugby World Cup since 1995, with 2027 marking the company’s ninth official campaign.
Departing Brisbane in late October and concluding in Sydney in early November — Australia at its most inviting in mid-spring — this is the most rewarding way to follow Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals alongside fellow rugby supporters.
Every Rugby World Cup 2027 booking with Events Travel is secure and flexible, backed by an Australian-based team that handles every detail from first enquiry through to return home.

Many hotels are set within historic or boutique buildings. This often adds charm and character but can also mean that rooms vary in size, shape and layout — even within the same category. Features such as air conditioning, elevators, and modern amenities may be limited or differ between hotels. If you have specific requirements, please let us know prior to booking so we can advise on the most suitable options.
The tour itinerary remains subject to change due to operational requirements, weather, venue availability, or other circumstances beyond our control.

Hotel information, descriptions and images are provided for reference only and are sourced from official hotel websites or suppliers. Amenities, facilities and features are subject to change without notice. All hotels are subject to confirmation in the final itinerary. If a listed property becomes unavailable, a hotel of an equivalent or higher standard will be offered in its place (“or similar”). In the rare instance that a lower standard property is provided, a price reduction will apply.
All tours are subject to a minimum number of passengers to proceed. The required minimum will vary depending on the tour and is determined by Events Travel in its sole discretion.
If minimum numbers are not met by a specified cut-off date, Events Travel reserves the right to cancel the tour. In such circumstances, affected customers will be notified in writing and offered the following options:
Important notice: Do not make any non-refundable or non-changeable travel arrangements (including flights, accommodation or other services) until Events Travel has confirmed that the tour has reached minimum numbers and is proceeding as scheduled. Events Travel will not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses (including cancellation or change fees) you incur as a result of a tour being cancelled, rescheduled or materially altered due to minimum numbers not being met.
This clause operates in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Where applicable, refunds will be made in line with your statutory entitlements.
