Wild scenes as rugby festivities pour out onto the roads in Marseille

The Rugby World Cup is an occasion that’s often coupled with a festival atmosphere unmatched by very few other events.

This tournament in France is expected to be the greatest of all, with rugby fans from all around the globe conversing on the French nation unlikely to have seen jubilant scenes like this since 2007.

On the ground in France, Rugbydump reporter Jack Tunney has been caught up in the most excitable atmosphere all of rugby can bring.

Thousands upon thousands of English and Argentinian fans have found themselves sharing drinks, stories, and a common love of the game, as the city of Marseille stands as the meeting ground for the masses.

Best to avoid the city centre, the activities of the fans have spread to the roads as a huge crowd is seen supporting those who have turned their enthusiasm into music.
