Experience the climax of Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 — both semi-finals and the final at Stadium Australia in Sydney — with a four-night escape to Tasmania between the matches that decide the world champions.
Follow the tournament to its conclusion across three knockout matches alongside fellow rugby supporters on a 10-night small group tour from 4 to 14 November 2027. The journey begins with three nights in Sydney for both semi-finals at Stadium Australia, breaks for a four-night Hobart escape across the middle of finals week, and returns to Sydney for three nights and the Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 final. Led throughout by a dedicated Events Travel tour manager, the tour brings together world-class rugby, premium accommodation in Sydney and Hobart, and a journey of food, wine, art and rugby camaraderie.
Start with three nights at Pullman Sydney Hyde Park over semi-finals weekend, with official Cat. 4 tickets (with optional upgrades) to both Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 semi-finals at Stadium Australia on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 November. Match day transport is included on both evenings — direct coach transfers to the venue on Friday, and a river transfer up the Parramatta River from Darling Harbour on Saturday, passing the Sydney Harbour Bridge on the way to Sydney Olympic Park.
Between the semi-finals and the final, the tour heads south to Tasmania for a luxury escape at The Tasman in the heart of Hobart. In the island capital, enjoy a welcome dinner on arrival, a guided Bruny Island day tour, a local winery lunch, and admission to the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) with return Posh Pit ferry transfers. Hobart pairs a celebrated food and wine scene with waterfront history and the wild landscapes of southern Tasmania, a distinctive counterpoint to the intensity of finals week. Optional day trips include kunanyi / Mount Wellington, Cascade Brewery, nature tours and gastropub dining.
The tour returns to Sydney for three nights at Pullman Sydney Hyde Park and the Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 final at Stadium Australia on Saturday 13 November, the single most sought-after ticket of the tournament. A Sydney Harbour cruise on a glass-panelled vessel, with a drinks package and chef-curated catering, marks the build-up to the final, and match day transport carries the group from Darling Harbour up the Parramatta River to Stadium Australia for the decider. The bronze final is an optional extra for the Friday evening.
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 ten nights, and the kind of tournament fever that only builds when fellow supporters travel together towards a final. For Australians and international visitors alike, combining the Sydney finals series with a Tasmanian escape is the perfect way to experience the conclusion of the rugby calendar and one of Australia’s most rewarding destinations 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 Sydney in early November and concluding with the final in mid-November — Australia and Tasmania at their late-spring best — this is the most complete way to follow Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 through to the final 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.

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.

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.
