The countdown to the 2027 Six Nations begins in Dublin at Executive Forum’s annual . Six Nations Rugby Championship Preview Lunch

On Friday 5 February, Ireland and England will renew one of rugby's greatest rivalries at a sold-out Aviva Stadium. Two days earlier, Executive Forum will bring together 350 senior leaders from some of Ireland's best-known and most successful organisations for our first ‘Sports & Leadership Lunch’ of 2027.

Widely regarded as one of the highlights of Executive Forum’s members calendar, this exclusive lunch combines exceptional networking, leadership insights and behind-the-scenes rugby stories from two leading figures from the game. Attendees will gain unique perspectives on high performance, resilience, preparation, teamwork and leadership under pressure.

As always, the conversation will be expertly led by Joe Molloy, Ireland's leading sports broadcaster and the face of rugby coverage on Virgin Media Television.

350 leaders. One room. One tournament. One unforgettable afternoon.
