The 1985 England rugby union tour of New Zealand was a series of seven matches played by the England national rugby union team in New Zealand in May and June 1985. England played seven games, including two test matches against the New Zealand national rugby union team. They won four of the seven matches but lost both of the test matches as well as the fixture against the Auckland provincial team.

The preliminaries to this tour were shrouded in uncertainty and selection

announcements containing players whose availability had not been confirmed. Dick Greenwood, England's current coach, announced he was not available having just taken a new job, and eventually 2 coaches were appointed under Derek Morgan, Martin Green and Brian Ashton. The party as a whole was very short of experience, and only three players had previous experience of New Zealand rugby at test level; Jamie Salmon, who had won 3 caps for the All Blacks, and Paul Dodge and Steve Bainbridge who had played in the 1983 match between England and New Zealand at Twickenham.
