Rugby World Cup 2019™ Tournament Pass now available to buy

Rugby World Cup 2019™ Tournament Pass now available for purchase from Spark Sport

Rugby fans can now get ready for wall-to-wall coverage of Rugby World Cup 2019. Until the end of May, fans can purchase their Tournament Pass for just $59.99. The Spark Sport Rugby World Cup 2019 Tournament Pass is the only way New Zealanders can access all 48 matches of the tournament live and on demand.
Jeff Latch, Head of Spark Sport is urging fans who want the complete Rugby World Cup experience, to get in early and purchase their Tournament Pass at the super-early bird price of $59.99.

“Tournament Pass holders will get access to full match replays for 30 days following each match, an array of highlights, preview and review programming. It includes access to a range of historic Rugby World Cup match content as soon as the pass is purchased, giving rugby fans another reason to sign up early and relive the excitement of previous years.”

“Spark Sport is the only place rugby fans will be able to watch every single match live; some of the free-to-air matches will be broadcast with a delay on TVNZ. Viewers will also have the flexibility of being able to watch on a wide range of devices.”

Simply head to sparksport.co.nz, where you’ll be able to buy a Tournament Pass as a one-off purchase. You will need to set up a Spark Sport account as part of the purchase, but don’t need a monthly subscription ($19.99) to buy a Tournament Pass.
