Wembley Stadium

 

It may be the national stadium of the England football team but Wembley Stadium has rugby pedigree too. The 90,000 capacity stadium hosted its first rugby international in 1992, when England defeated a touring Canada side 26-13 while Twickenham underwent redevelopment. It has also hosted seven internationals while Cardiff's Millennium Stadium was being built in the late 1990s. Now it hosts two Rugby World Cup matches in 2015, New Zealand versus Argentina on Sunday 20th September, and Ireland against Romania on Sunday 27th September.
