Wales have confirmed they will host New Zealand in Cardiff as part of their 2017 autumn internationals.

Warren Gatland's side will also face Australia, South Africa and Georgia at the Principality Stadium.

Ticket prices for all of the games have been cut, and WRU chief executive Martyn Phillips is confident the new pricing will attract bumper crowds to fill the home of Welsh rugby across all four matches in 2017.

"We have an exciting series ahead with Australia, Georgia, New Zealand and South Africa all coming to Cardiff and we want to make these games as accessible as possible, so that more rugby supporters have the opportunity to support our national team live at Principality Stadium," he said.

"Our new pricing structure is a reflection of our ambition to sell out the venue across all four matches whilst also hitting our business targets for investment back into all levels of the game.

"We know we have the greatest rugby stadium in the world in Cardiff and we want it to be packed out to its rafters for his mouth-watering series of matches."
