WRU chief executive Roger Lewis said in a statement today: “This is the opportunity for the supporters to salute the players and coached who delivered so many victories for Wales this past season.

“We were determined that entry would be free because we want as many people as possible to show their appreciation and we would particularly like to thank each of the many high profile music and entertainment acts that have already shown their support.”

When Wales last won the Grand Slam event in 2005, 20,000 fans were joined by the team and the Prince Charles for a similar party.
