The 2008 World Rugby Player of the Year is believed to have been on a night out after watching Wales play South Africa in December.
A South Wales Police spokesperson: “Six men have been charged with affray following an incident on Great Western Lane, Cardiff, on December 2, 2017.”
Williams was arrested and bailed by police, and will join the five other men at Cardiff Magistrates’ Court on March 9.
