← 2023 2025 → |
The 2024 World Rugby Pacific Nations Cup[a] is set to be the seventeenth Pacific Nations Cup (PNC) tournament, and the first with a new format design.[2][3] Similar to the 2019 tournament, the same teams will play each other,[2][3] with the same round-robin structure. However, unlike 2019 the 2024 edition is scheduled to have a finals series following the pool stage (hosted in Japan), to decide the champion.[2][4][5]
Although Fiji, Japan, Samoa and Tonga did play each other in the lead-up to the 2023 Rugby World Cup (RWC), the PNC tournament did not involve the new permanent teams of Canada and the United States. The most recent winners of the tournament with six teams is Japan (2019). However the defending champions are Fiji.
