Exeter Chiefs will kick-off their 2023/24 Gallagher Premiership fixtures with the visit of the champions Saracens to Sandy Park.

Mark McCall's side will provide the first league test for the Chiefs, whose fixture will be screened live on the new TNT Sports channel on Saturday, October 14 at 1:30pm.

It kicks-off an action-packed first month of the season for the Devonians, who face Harlequins at the Twickenham Stoop on Saturday, October 21 at 3pm, followed by the visit of Sale Sharks on Saturday, October 28 at 3pm.

Supporters will be able to check-in for a regular Sunday afternoon slot in November with all four of Exeter's top-flight fixtures being played out at 3pm.

November starts with a bang on the 5th with a Westcountry derby against Bristol Bears at Sandy Park, followed a week later with a trip to Northampton Saints. 

A brand-new and highly-anticipated ‘Derby Weekend’ in Round 6 (November 17-19) will super-charge the matchday experience for all - and for Rob Baxter's side that means another all-Westcountry affair in the shape of Gloucester at home on the 19th.

The final fixture of the month sees the Chiefs make their longest trip of the season when they head to Newcastle's Kingston Park on the 26th.

Into December and following the start of the Champions Cup campaign, the Chiefs have a Christmas cracker of a fixture to kick-off the festive period with the visit of Leicester Tigers on Saturday, December 23 (3pm. The year is then closed off with a short trip to Bristol Bears on Friday, December 29 with a 7:45pm kick-off at Ashton Gate.

The New Year brings tough tests at both the start and end of January with Northampton Saints the visitors on Saturday, January 6, followed by a trip to Saracens at the end of the month.

With TV picks not decided for games beyond the Saracens game, the remaining Premiership fixtures are just diary markers for now, although we will have a our final run out at home against Harlequins in mid-May with the last game of the regular season seeing us travel to Leicester Tigers on Saturday, May 18.
