where is the rugby world cup being held next year?
japan
following the decision to host the 2018 rugby world cup sevens in san francisco, united states world rugby chief executive brett gosper encouraged a 2027 bid from the united states. japan and france were to host the 2019 and 2023 tournaments one year prior to the 2020 and 2024 summer olympics respectively. as the 2028 summer olympics are due to be held in los angeles, a rugby world cup hosted in the united states in 2027 would mark the third consecutive time that the rugby world cup and summer olympics were held back-to-back in the same nation. the united states is also co-hosting the 2026 fifa world cup. as the united states has hosted numerous world sporting events in the past, including the 1994 fifa world cup, venues for the rugby world cup will be abundant. a challenge in this bid could be the commencement of the national football league regular season.
