UEFA Champions League is one of the most prestigious fixtures in the football calendar, regarded by many as the pinnacle of \u2018The World Game.\u2019 Hosting is an honour that only the best and biggest stadiums have bestowed upon them; to visit them as the crowd reaches fever pitch in the final minutes of a Champions League Final is totally unmatched. The 2026\/2027 season finale will be held in Madrid, Spain, at the Metropolitano Stadium. On 5 June 2027, it will host more than 70,000 die-hard football fans while Madrid pulls out all the stops for an electric weekend of elation and celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">October \u2013 November: Rugby World Cup (Australia)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The six weeks from 1 October to 13 November 2027 will be great for two things: watching the 2027 Men&#8217;s Rugby World Cup live while touring the best bits of this great southern land in spring. The pinnacle of Rugby Union returns to Australian shores for the first time since 2003, as seven cities watch 24 nations battle for the coveted Cup in an all-new format. Between blockbuster matches of rugby union, there&#8217;s no shortage of new experiences in the host cities, which take you from Perth\u2019s pristine beaches to the rainforests of Queensland and cultural hubs of Sydney and Melbourne. With the game growing globally, what better nation to enable its run to the line than sports-obsessed Australia?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">October \u2013 November: Cricket World Cup (South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 24 years, cricket\u2019s one-day World Cup will return to Africa for an undoubtedly energetic six weeks of chaos. Across October and November, 54 matches and 14 nations will crown a new champion, while fans hang on every moment under the hot African sun. Between matches, combine your trip with a safari, or take a rest from all that cheering on South Africa\u2019s pristine white sand beaches. Lion sightings might be illusive, but an action-packed World Cup is all but guaranteed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Year-Round: Abu Dhabi Festival<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Abu Dhabi Festival, which will be in its 23rd year by 2027, is a glorious annual showcase of world-class musicians and artists. More than 600 performances, 120 world premieres and 100 commissioned works from more than 30 countries will dazzle attendees and highlight the UAE as a place of harmony and culture. While visiting this enchanting city, you\u2019ll discover all sorts of modern and historical attractions, from beach clubs to the Grand Mosque and desert safari experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Events to travel for beyond 2027<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Summer Olympics 2028 (Los Angeles, USA)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cricket: 2028 ICC Men&#8217;s T20 World Cup (Australia\/New Zealand)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Solar Eclipse 2029<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"lux_UI lux_offer_carousel\">\n\t\n\t<h3>Discover Australia<\/h3>\t\n\t<section class=\"splide lux_offer_carousel_feed\" aria-label=\"Discover Australia\">\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__arrows\">\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--prev\"><\/button>\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--next\"><\/button>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<div class=\"splide__track\">\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__list\">\n\t\t\t\n<div id=\"offer_006RF00000NQtd7YAD\" class=\"splide__slide offer_item type_hotel cacheid_66f50e73abab1188db2559642100e6a7\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/us\/offer\/the-star-gold-coast-queensland-australia\/006RF00000NQtd7YAD\" data-le=\"promo\" data-type=\"offer Flash carousel LuxPlus\" data-name=\"The Star Residences\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"offer_link_wrap\">\t<div class=\"offer_preview\">\n\t\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_250\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp 250w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_400\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp 400w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_600\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp 600w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_800\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp 800w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/05rdmc2po69s8rm8pjc.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 250px, 250px\" alt=\"The Star Residences, Gold Coast, Queensland\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"><\/figure>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"offer_details\">\n\t\t<div class=\"tags\"><span class=\"new\">New<\/span><\/div><div class=\"location\"><i><\/i><span>Gold Coast, Queensland<\/span><\/div><div class=\"name\">The Star Residences<\/div><div class=\"tagline\">Gold Coast Glamour: Broadbeach One- &#038;
