Big upcoming Munster rugby clashes sell out fast ahead of Christmas

Munster Rugby today confirmed that the URC Interpro derby against Leinster on St Stephen’s Day and the clash with Crusaders at Páirc Uí Chaoimh in February are both sold-out.

A whopping 66,485 tickets have been snapped up across the two games while the Leinster game will be only the second Christmas Interpro derby in the past four years as the 2020 and 2021 editions were both postponed.

A cracking atmosphere is expected with a full house of 25,600 supporters due for the big occasion and Tipperary supporters will hope Brian Gleeson and Diarmuid Barron will feature. 

The game at Páirc Uí Chaoimh will just be the second ever folloing on from the hugely successful sold-out clash against South Africa A last November.

Crusaders won their seventh successive Super Rugby Pacific championship last summer and are the most successful team in the competition’s history with 14 title wins.
