Around 45,000 fans are expected at Croke Park today as Leinster face the Vodacom Bulls in a landmark Vodacom United Rugby Championship Grand Final.
With both clubs chasing their first-ever Vodacom URC title, demand has surged throughout the week — pushing ticket sales to near-record levels in just six days.
Croke Park could see a new Irish league final attendance record, challenging the 46,092 set in 2018 at Aviva Stadium (Leinster v Scarlets). Remarkably, that figure was achieved over a nine-month sales window — today’s Grand Final has hit similar heights in under a week. Sales of tickets exceeded initial expectations and this is in great part due to the efforts of Leinster Rugby.
Tickets are still available at ticketmaster.ie starting from €22.95, with options including:
- Family bundles
- Premium level seating
- Spots on the iconic Hill 16 terrace
This is more than a Grand Final – it’s a showdown between Ireland and South Africa’s most successful rugby teams, set against the epic backdrop of Croke Park. Be part of this historic day.
