The Fiji Water Flying Fijians will take on the All Blacks at the San Diego Legions home ground, the Snap Dragon Stadium in July.

This will be the first time for the Flying Fijians to play in San Diego.

NZ Rugby says this will also be a historic moment for the All Blacks as it will be the first time for them to take their home game out of New Zealand and also the first time in 44 years for them to be playing in San Diego, the last time was in 1980 against the USA.

Fiji 7s legend Waisale Serevi says the test match will be huge for Fiji.

He says allowing Fiji to play the All Blacks on neutral ground, for a small country, is a blessing.

The two teams last met in 2021 when the All Blacks hosted Fiji in two test matches with Fiji losing 57-23 and 60-13 on both occasions.

Fiji will play the All Blacks on the 20th of July, 2024.
