The 2025 Men's Six Nations Championship (known as the Guinness Men's Six Nations for sponsorship reasons and branded as M6N) was a rugby union competition that took place from late January to mid-March 2025, featuring the men's national teams of England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales. It was the 131st season of the competition (including its incarnations as the Home Nations Championship and the Five Nations Championship), but the 26th since it expanded to become the Six Nations Championship in 2000. It started on 31 January 2025 with a Friday night match between France and Wales, and ended with France against Scotland on 15 March.{{cite news |title=Six Nations 2025 fixtures: France host Wales in opener & England travel to Dublin |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/68522637 |website=BBC Sport |date=9 March 2024 |access-date=9 March 2024 |archive-date=9 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240309155802/https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/68522637 |url-status=live }} Ireland entered the tournament as two-time reigning champions, aiming to become the first team to win the Championship outright three years in a row. France returned to their normal home venue, the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, after a year away while the stadium was being prepared for the 2024 Summer Olympics.
France won the championship in the final match, crowned Six Nations champions for the seventh time, their 19th outright title in all formats and their 27th title overall.{{cite web|url= https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/mar/15/france-scotland-six-nations-rugby-union-match-report|title=France win Six Nations title after Moefana’s double sinks Scotland|date=15 March 2025|work=Guardian|accessdate=18 March 2025}}
Three teams – France, England and holders Ireland – won four games and lost a fifth, with France triumphing on bonus points. Wales finished with a second successive Wooden Spoon after losing all five games. No team won the Grand Slam, although Ireland completed their 14th Triple Crown before defeat to France. Their third place finish was the worst of any Triple Crown-winning side; all previous winners had either won the championship or finished runners-up.

- Four points are awarded for a win.
- Two points are awarded for a draw.
- A bonus point is awarded to a team that scores four or more tries, or loses by seven points or fewer. If a team scores four or more tries, and loses by seven points or fewer, they are awarded both bonus points.
- Three bonus points are awarded to a team that wins all five of their matches (a Grand Slam). This ensures that a Grand Slam-winning team would top the table with at least 23 points, as there would otherwise be a scenario where a team could win all five matches with no bonus points for a total of 20 points and another team could win four matches with bonus points and lose their fifth match while claiming one or more bonus points giving a total of 21 or 22 points.
- Tiebreakers
- If two or more teams are tied on table points, the team with the better points difference (points scored less points conceded) is ranked higher.
- If the above tiebreaker fails to separate tied teams, the team that scores the higher number of total tries (including penalty tries) in their matches is ranked higher.
- If two or more teams remain tied after applying the above tiebreakers then those teams will be placed at equal rank; if the tournament has concluded and more than one team is placed first then the title will be shared between them.
