DEFENDER AT RUGBY WORLD CUP
Unforgettable experiences, engineered to excite.
DEFENDER LAUNCH PARTY
Defender kicked off Rugby World Cup France 2023 with a launch event at the Palais de Tokyo, in Paris, to honour our inspirational Trailblazers.
Our Trailblazers stepped into the spotlight, sharing their incredible stories of embracing the impossible on their awe-inspiring journeys, in discussion with rugby legend and 2007 World Cup winner Bryan Habana.
The electrifying British rapper and actor, Kano, took to the stage in front of the Rugby World Cup 2023 Limited Edition Defender.
RUGBY VILLAGE: PLACE DE LA CONCORDE
A festival of strength, courage and determination with Defender at the heart of it all.
WHEELCHAIR RUGBY
Defying limits, embracing teamwork and conquering the game.
Running in tandem with Rugby World Cup France 2023 was the Wheelchair Rugby Tournament hosted at the Rugby Village.
MINI-DEFENDER CHALLENGE
Rugby Village guests were given the chance to test their skills, navigate the course, and feel the excitement of conquering every obstacle with our all-electric mini-Defender challenge.
DEFENDER HOUSES
The ultimate viewing experience, immersed in the world of Defender.
Chosen for their ambitious and bold design, guests were invited to cheer the teams on from specially selected locations across France.

In the heart of the Parisian countryside, with views of the city skyline. The idyllic setting was surrounded by lush greenery and tree-lined avenues, a stone’s throw from the Seine River.
