The Wallabies' Spring Tour will have a free-to-air home on SBS.

SBS confirmed on Monday it had secured the rights to Australia's Tests against Wales, Italy and England to be played in coming weeks.

Foxtel channel beIN Sports has the pay TV rights for each Test 

Spring Tour broadcast rights are negotiated separately to the regular home season, which is owned by FOX SPORTS and Channel Ten.

Matches will be broadcast on SBS and SBS Viceland as well as on SBS on Demand.

SBS has become a familiar home for the Spring Tour, having broadcast the Wallabies vs France and Wallabies vs England Tests in 2016 and the entirety of last year's tour.

The Wallabies are spending a second training week in Japan this week before flying to London on Saturday for the European Tour.
