THE dates of the 2023 TikTok Women’s Six Nations fixtures have been announced with all Scotland matches to be broadcast live by the BBC.
After playing in their first Rugby World Cup since 2010, this October, Scotland’s focus will turn back to the Tik Tok Women’s Six Nations where they will play England away from home in the opening weekend, on Saturday, March 25 2023.
Once again, all of the matches will be played in a separate window to the men’s championship.
All Scotland's home games will take place at the DAM Health Stadium.
Scotland’s next game will be on the evening of Saturday 1 April, at home, against Wales.
Next up will be a trip to France where they will play on Sunday, April 16 at 3.15pm. Bryan Easson’s side’s penultimate match of the championship will be against Italy on Saturday, April 22 before the finale, on Saturday April 29.
On Super Saturday, Scotland will play Ireland in the final match of the day, kicking-off at 7.30 to end the championship in style.
Last year’s TikTok Women’s Six Nations Championship saw the arrival of TikTok as the first ever title partner of the competition and a catalyst moment for women’s sport.
The partnership with TikTok resulted in unprecedented growth and engagement on the entertainment platform throughout the Championship, including over 174 million video views.
It was a record-breaking year with match attendance records broken each week, a 62% increase on 2019 crowds (Pre-Covid) and TV viewing figures up 64%.
All Scotland matches will be broadcast on the BBC across either network, the BBC Scotland channel and iPlayer.
Six Nations CEO Ben Morel commented: “The 2022 TikTok Women’s Six Nations was a landmark moment for the Championship and for Women’s rugby as a whole.
“We look forward to building on this year’s successes, growing and engaging new audiences with the continued strong commitment from our broadcast partners and outstanding commercial partners all providing fantastic platforms to further drive women’s rugby and celebrate its game changing heroes.
“I look forward to another epic TikTok Women’s Six Nations in 2023.”
