The competition was broadcast by BT Sport for the second successive season. Highlights of each weekend's games were shown on ITV.

Summary

Saracens won their second title after defeating Bath in the final at Twickenham after having finished fourth in the regular season table. London Welsh were relegated after losing all of their games. It was the second time that London Welsh have been relegated from the top flight since the leagues began and the first time since the 2012–13 Premiership Rugby season.

As usual, round 1 included the London Double Header at Twickenham, the eleventh instance since its inception in 2004.

Teams

Twelve teams compete in the league – the top eleven teams from the previous season and London Welsh who were promoted from the 2013–14 RFU Championship after a top flight absence of one year. They replaced Worcester Warriors who were relegated after three years in the top flight.

    Pre-season

    The Premiership Rugby Sevens Series continued with the 2014 edition. In a change to the format, the series was expanded to include the four Welsh Regions.[4] As a result, the series began on 26 July 2014, at the BT Sport Cardiff Arms Park, continuing at Kingsholm, Franklin's Gardens and Kingston Park on 31 July, 1 August and 2 August 2014 respectively. The finals were on 8 August 2014 at the Twickenham Stoop. This was the first opportunity of the season for any of the teams competing in the Premiership to win a trophy.

    Gloucester won the series for the second year in the row, beating Newport Gwent Dragons 12–5 in the final to become the first team to retain the title. As Gloucester have already qualified for the World Club 7s at Twickenham, the place allocated to the winner of the final was given to Harlequins, as the next best performing English club.[4][5]
