Key Dates For 2015/16 Guinness PRO12 Fixtures

With Munster’s Guinness PRO12 final against Glasgow Warriors looming, the key dates for the 2015/16 PRO12 season were announced today.

Fans will not have to wait until after the Rugby World Cup to get their fix of top club rugby action next year, with the 2015/16 season set to kick-off on the weekend of September 4/5/6.

After the opening two rounds of action, which precede the Rugby World Cup curtain-raiser at Twickenham on September 18, the Guinness PRO12 clubs will take a break for two weeks to minimise disruption during the autumn showpiece.

Action resumes with round three on the weekend of October 3, with round four a fortnight later – once the Rugby World Cup knockout stages begin and fewer players have international commitments.

And the final day of the regular season is set for May 7, 2016, with the Guinness PRO12 final to be played on the weekend of May 28.
