Tipperary and Cork hurling match in Thurles on Sunday is heading fast towards a sell-out
Only terrace tickets remain with clubs and the public snapping up tickets this week
Thurles will be chock-a-block on Sunday with in excess of 40,000 people descending on the town for the knockout championship match on Sunday afternoon in FBD Semple Stadium.
The Round 4 Munster championship clash is finely poised with Cork on 2 points after three games while Tipperary are on 1 point after 2 games. Cork have beaten Limerick but lost to Waterford and Clare while Tipperary have drawn with Waterford but lost to Limerick so far.
Both managers are expected to name their teams over the next 24 hours after recent games with Cork getting just 8 days between their match in Pairc Ui Chaoimh and the Thurles showdown.
Gardai in Thurles has issued advice to arrive early and to use the designated car parks across Thurles on the day.
The crowd is expected to exceed the attendances at last years round robin Munster championship games when Tipperary played Limerick and Waterford in Thurles in fact, it is expected to be the largest Munster championship attendance there since the Munster final of 2022 when Limerick played Clare to a full house.
Clare and Waterford is on next Sunday as well in Cusack Park and in excess of 15,000 tickets have been sold to date for that game with close to a sell-out attendance also expected.
