This year they lost only to Ireland in the Guinness Six Nations, although Scotland ran them close in Paris.

The game at Scottish Gas Murrayfield is the first of two against les Bleus this August – they play again the following weekend in Saint Etienne – and provides the perfect opportunity to see this popular fixture played in glorious summer weather.

Scotland have won three of the last six games against France, including the Summer Test four years ago, ahead of the 2019 Rugby World Cup and the historic last-minute victory in Paris in 2021.

Tickets are still available for this game, starting at £31.50 (adults) and £15.75 (U18s). Children under-12 go free with a paying adult until midnight on Thursday 3 August (T&Cs apply). Two-match packages are also available.
