England Women's Rugby World Cup celebration arrangements have been finalised following their commanding 33-13 triumph over Canada. Tries from Ellie Kildunne, Amie Cokayne, Alex Matthews and Abbie Ward comprised the bulk of the points tally, with Zoe Harrison conversions.

Before a remarkable crowd of 81,885 supporters crammed into Twickenham, the Red Roses secured victory in emphatic style. Despite surging ahead early on, England temporarily found themselves reduced to 14 players when Hannah Botterman received a yellow card.

Nevertheless, Canada were unable to exploit their numerical superiority, with England instead extending their lead. Following their triumph, England Rugby's official website released a statement confirming their celebratory arrangements.

"The Red Roses will celebrate their historic home Women's Rugby World Cup win with fans during the Champions Party at Battersea Power Station, London, on Sunday 28 September from 2pm," the announcement revealed.

"The Champions Party will take place at North Park along the riverside area of Battersea Power Station. It will be hosted by Katy Daley-Mclean and Topsy Ojo, and will be broadcast on BBC1 from 3pm as well as on England Rugby's YouTube channel.
