At Croke Park · Croke Park, Dublin
The Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Final is the biggest day in the camogie calendar - the match that crowns the best county team in Ireland after a summer of group games, quarter-finals and semi-finals. Tipperary come into 2026 as one of four automatic Group 1 seeds, alongside Galway, Cork and Waterford, having reached the semi-finals in 2025. Finals day at Croke Park draws tens of thousands and has a genuine championship feel - families, county colours, and the kind of noise that only a packed Croke Park produces.
The 2026 championship has ten counties competing across two groups. Tipperary’s route to the final runs through group games in June, then quarter-finals and semi-finals at FBD Semple Stadium on 25 July. If they come through, they meet one of the other top sides in Dublin on 9 August. The match is sponsored by Glen Dimplex and broadcast nationally. Opponents will be confirmed after the semi-finals, but that uncertainty does not dim the occasion - Croke Park in full voice for a camogie final is worth the trip regardless of which counties are on the pitch.
Croke Park is on Jones’s Road in Dublin 3, about a 20-minute walk from O’Connell Street. From Tipperary, the straightforward option is the train from Thurles or Tipperary Town into Dublin Heuston, then a Luas Red Line hop or a short taxi. Bus Eireann typically runs extra services on All-Ireland days - worth checking ahead. Driving is possible but parking near the ground is very limited; city-centre car parks or a park-and-ride work better.
If you are spending the weekend before travelling north for the final, Tipperary Town sits at the foot of good walking country with the Rock of Cashel close by. There is more to see in Tipperary and across Co. Tipperary.
