Leinster v Munster - URC

At Aviva Stadium · 62 Lansdowne Road, Dublin 4

Leinster v Munster rugby match

Leinster versus Munster is the biggest fixture in Irish provincial rugby. When these two meet at the Aviva, the atmosphere is electric - 40,000+ fans, the Munster faithful making the trip up from Limerick, Cork, and beyond, and a rivalry that transcends sport.
