The 2027 Ashes: five Tests, five grounds

The 2027 Ashes at a glance

Five grounds, from the opening morning in Nottingham to the final Test in London. Start with the day you can attend, then compare the view and the ticket route.

A single day can give you a memorable slice of the series; consecutive days let you watch an innings take shape. Before arranging a stay, choose your match ticket and think about how flexible you can be if the Test finishes early. Each ground guide explains the day choices and local travel.
