The 2025 Super Rugby Pacific season (known as Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific in Fiji and DHL Super Rugby Pacific in New Zealand) is the thirtieth season of Super Rugby, an annual rugby union competition organised by SANZAAR between teams from Australia, Fiji, New Zealand and a combined team from Samoa, Tonga and other Pacific Island nations. The defending champions are the Blues, who won their fourth title in 2024.[1]

The competition was reduced from twelve teams in 2024 to eleven following the axing of Australian team Melbourne Rebels.[2][3]

The season will begin on 14 February 2025.[4]
