England will not host Australia for any men’s Ashes Test at Old Trafford or Headingley next summer. Multiple outlets report that neither Manchester’s Old Trafford nor Leeds’ Headingley will be used as venues for the 2027 Ashes matches between England and Australia. The reporting indicates that the 2027 Tests are therefore not scheduled for those two long-standing English grounds in the north of England. While the sources confirm the absence of those specific venues, they do not provide further detail about which other grounds, if any, will stage the 2027 men’s Ashes Tests. The announcements are limited to venue exclusion, stating that the north-of-England stadium options of Old Trafford and Headingley are not part of the men’s Ashes calendar for that period. The information is presented as a clarification on the match locations rather than a broader change to the Ashes series itself.
