All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Quarter-Final 2026 - Clare Possible

At Croke Park · Jones' Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3

Camogie players at Croke Park during a championship quarter-final

One of the great days out in the Irish sporting calendar, the All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship quarter-finals bring top-level inter-county camogie to Croke Park alongside the All-Ireland Hurling semi-finals. On Sunday 5 July 2026, Clare take on a Group 1 side - having finished second in Group 2 with three wins from five games, they have earned their place in the last eight. If you follow Clare, or simply want a full afternoon of elite Gaelic games at headquarters, this is a day worth clearing the diary for.

What to expect

The Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship quarter-finals run as a double-header with the hurling semi-finals, so you get two major fixtures on the same ticket. Sunday’s card (5 July) pairs the camogie quarter-final with Limerick v Clare in the hurling - which means the Banner County faithful will have a particular reason to be in Croke Park that afternoon.

Camogie at this stage of the championship is fast, physical and technically excellent. The Senior Championship gathers the ten best county teams in Ireland, and by the quarter-final round the weaker sides have been filtered out. Expect high-scoring, direct play and the kind of crowd atmosphere that only Croke Park generates. Throw-in times are listed as “Various” in the programme - check the Camogie Association fixture page or Ticketmaster for the confirmed schedule closer to the date, as timings can shift after the bracket is set.

Tickets start from €20 and are sold through Ticketmaster. It is worth booking early: double-headers at Croke Park in July sell well, particularly when Clare - who draw a large travelling support from the west of Ireland - are involved in both codes.

Getting there

Croke Park is at Jones’ Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3. For big match days, public transport is strongly recommended. Dublin Bus serves the area from the city centre, and Connolly Station (DART and commuter rail) is a 20-minute walk. The Luas Red Line stop at O’Connell - GPO is a similar distance on foot. Driving is possible but parking near the ground is very limited on match days; most supporters leave the car well outside the city and take a bus or DART in.

If you are travelling from Clare, Bus Eireann runs coaches from Ennis to Dublin, and Irish Rail connects Ennis to Limerick with onward services to Heuston Station in Dublin, from where a bus or taxi to Croke Park takes around 20 minutes.

While you’re in Ennis

Croke Park is in Dublin, but the heart of Clare GAA is in Ennis - and many supporters will gather in the town before or after travelling up for the match. There is more to see in Ennis and across Co. Clare.
