The Chiefs travel to Fiji for the fourth year in a row, confirmed for a heavyweight Kiwi derby against the Crusaders in Suva on June 1 next year.
Having played the Highlanders this year, the Chiefs will again ignite their rivalry with the Crusaders in Suva, having previously done so in both 2016 and 2017.
Chiefs CEO Michael Collins said that his side were looking forward to another opportunity to grow the game in the Pacific.
"The Fijian people have been great supporters of the Super Rugby matches we have played in Suva, and Fiji has added a lot to rugby in New Zealand over the years, so we're really pleased to be able to take another game there," he said in a statement.
"The Chiefs have played in Suva the past three years, including the very first Super Rugby game played in the islands, so we have a close connection with Fiji - it feels like a home away from home and a real part of our Chiefs territory."
The match will be the Chiefs' last "home" game of the regular season, playing the rest at Hamilton's FMG Stadium.
