New dates have been confirmed for the rescheduled Rugby League World Cup 2021 (RLWC2021).

Following the announcement earlier this month (August 2021) that the tournament would be postponed until next year, the organisers have now announced that it will take place between Saturday 15 October and Saturday 19 November 2022.

The opening match and the men's and women's double header finals will be played, as originally planned, at St James' Park, Newcastle and Old Trafford, Manchester, respectively.

RLWC2021 will fall between the 2022 Commonwealth Games and the 2022 FIFA World Cup, meaning that existing broadcast partners will continue to air all 61 games of the tournament.
