      Franklin’s Gardens

      There are few more iconic sights in English rugby than that of Franklin’s Gardens, a mainstay of the sport for approaching 150 years.

      Home to Northampton Saints and a regular host of Loughborough Lightning matches, the Gardens is set to play host to eight pool matches across two weeks of exhilarating action. The only venue within the Midlands, Northampton is no stranger to massive rugby moments. England icon Emily Scarratt has fired many a point through the posts there, and adds, “Franklin’s Gardens is a traditional rugby hotbed and we can’t wait to bring the Rugby World Cup there in 2025.
