The 2023 London Sevens was the final event of the 2022–23 World Rugby Sevens Series and the twenty-first edition of the London Sevens. It was held at Twickenham Stadium, London on 20–21 May 2023.[1][2]
Argentina won the Cup final, their third tournament victory for the season, by defeating Fiji 35–14.[3]
The competition format used in London was different to all previous events in the season as only twelve teams instead of sixteen were eligible to compete for the tournament cup.[4] The other four teams competed for the one remaining core team berth for the 2023–24 World Rugby Sevens Series [5] with the unsuccessful sides losing core team status.[1]
Canada won the play-off to retain core team status for 2023–24, defeating Kenya by 12–7.[3]
