PREM Cup fixtures confirmed for 2025/26 season

The full 2025/26 season structure has now been confirmed with the announcement of an exciting PREM Cup competition.

Runners-up in last season’s competition, Exeter Chiefs look to produce another strong performance in the tournament as their pool this season features Gloucester Rugby, Bath Rugby, Sale Sharks and Bristol Bears.

Chiefs will play two rounds of Cup action before heading into the PREM campaign.

Round one kicks off on Friday night at Kingsholm as Chiefs face-off against Gloucester. There’ll be familiar faces in both camps as former Chief Jack Innard now dons cherry and white while Charlie Chapman lines up as an Exeter man this year.

A week later, round two features a rematch of last season’s final as Bath Rugby host Chiefs at the Recreation Ground on a Saturday afternoon.

After a bye from round three action, Chiefs return for back-to-back fixtures away to Sale and at home to Bears in the middle two weekends of November.

The run-in for the second block of pool fixtures begins with Chiefs versus Sale at Sandy Park on Saturday, 31 January 2026.

Then, in preceding weeks, Chiefs play against the Bears in Bristol before consecutive home games against Gloucester and Bath Rugby.

Cup fixtures are included in all season tickets. You can purchase yours for 2025/26 starting at £21 per game, which allows you to be at Sandy Park for all 15 games of the regular season.

The ticket window for cup fixtures will be confirmed at a later date.
