The broadcaster is airing all Wales’ games after reaching an agreement with Six Nations Rugby Ltd.

Live coverage of every Wales match in the 2020 Autumn Nations Cup will be shown on S4C. This includes Wales’s three pool matches – against Ireland, Georgia and England – and the country’s fourth game, which is in the finals weekend.

The live games are being shown on the free-to-air channel after the broadcaster reached an agreement with Six Nations Rugby Ltd for each game to be broadcast live in the Welsh language.

The 2020 Autumn Nations Cup begins on Friday 13 November.

Sue Butler, S4C sports commissioner, said: “We are delighted that viewers can follow Wales in this exciting new competition live on S4C. As a longstanding broadcast partner of the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU), this agreement reaffirms S4C’s commitment to providing high-quality rugby coverage in the Welsh language for all Welsh rugby fans.”

Craig Maxwell, WRU commercical director, added: “S4C continue to be a great supporter of Welsh rugby. This deal is great for fans as it means they can watch our exciting Autumn Nations cup fixtures in the Welsh language.”
