Stand ticket for Limerick-Cork Munster SHC final set at €50 - €20 dearer than the football final price

Tickets for Saturday week’s Munster SHC final have been priced at €50 for stand, €40 for the terrace, and €10 for U16s.

As usual, €5 concession for students and OAPs is also available for the Limerick-Cork decider in TUS Gaelic Grounds, which is certain to be a sell-out with all tickets being distributed via the participating county board and season ticket holders.

There is a €5 increase on stand, terrace and juvenile price points from last year’s final between Limerick and Clare in Thurles.

In line with the rises for round-robin tickets, it is the second jump in two years. In 2023, stand admission was €40 and terrace €30 for the Limerick-Clare clash at this year’s venue.

Unconsolidated attendances for the 10 round-robin games in Munster this year were 285,417, almost 15,000 more than last year’s record figure of 270,750.

With the Gaelic Grounds capacity currently just over 42,000, Munster GAA is expected to report another record-breaking crowd and gate receipt year for the competition. A total of 315,898 attended last year’s 11 matches.

The €50 stand charge to the hurling final is €20 more than what it cost to sit in Fitzgerald Stadium for the Kerry-Clare provincial senior football showdown last month.
