The 2023 World Rugby U20 Trophy was the thirteenth edition of the second-tier age-grade rugby competition. The tournament was held in Kenya for the second time, previously being held in 2009.[1]

This Under 20 competition (alongside the Championship) was the first global U20's competitions held since 2019, with the 2020 edition in Italy cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing instability in the world following the pandemic delaying the return of the competition. There were however various regional U20 competitions with the Six Nations Under 20s Championship and Oceania Rugby Under 20 Championship continuing to take place.

The tournament was held at the 15,000 capacity Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi.
