Super Saturday 2022 will take place on 19 March starting with Wales

Commenting on the announcement, Six Nations CEO, Ben Morel said:
"The 2021 Championship was one of the most competitive in history
with eight of the 15 matches won by 7 points or less.
"The drama of Super Saturday with France's last minute win against
Wales, meant that the winner of the Championship was only revealed
after the final match was played.
"It was an amazing effort from so many people to make the
Championship happen, not least the players and staff from the
unions, the broadcasters, media and our partners.
"That effort paid off in the shape of record TV audiences and the
most engaged Championship we've ever seen, it was truly a special
achievement from so many people. This Guinness Six Nations
entertained many of our long-standing fans and I believe we won
plenty of new ones as well.
"We look forward to next year's Championship with hopefully a
return to normality when we can welcome fans back in stadia and
bring that unrivalled Guinness Six Nations atmosphere into sitting
rooms, pubs and rugby clubs all over the world."
