World Rugby Chairman Sir Bill Beaumont said: “France 2023 will be a magnificent event, projecting the sport to new audiences through its accessibility across all mediums.

“A key pillar of that ethos is the appointment of official travel agents and today’s announcement is an exciting and important milestone for fans – they can now start to plan their Rugby World Cup 2023 experience.”

France 2023 Organising Committee CEO Claude Atcher said: “After a very successful Rugby World Cup 2019 in Japan, France is determined to perform at its absolute best and has already proudly shown its willingness to deliver a gigantic and memorable festival of rugby, friendship and culture.

“To achieve our goals, the France 2023 organising committee is committed to taking an innovative and new approach to major programmes, including the Official Travel Programme.”

Groupe Couleur Founder and President David Chevalier said: “My team and I are extremely proud of benefiting from World Rugby and the France 2023 organising committee’s full trust to contribute to this 10th edition’s success. We will deliver high quality services and a memorable experience to fans from around the world and share with them an authentic taste of French rugby and conviviality.”

Groupe Couleur will manage all operational responsibilities of the official travel programme, from appointing the official travel agents to delivering the tickets and ensuring all marketing guidelines are executed and monitored according to the objectives of the tournament under the auspices of the France 2023 Organising Committee and World Rugby.
