The 1996 Tri Nations Series was the inaugural series of the rugby union test matches, contested from 6 July to 10 August, between the Australia, New Zealand and South Africa national rugby union teams. The All Blacks won the inaugural tournament.
New Zealand beat Australia in both tests, thus retaining the Bledisloe Cup, which it had taken off Australia the previous year.
