“All I ever wanted was to play for Ireland. It is every bit the dream come true that people talk about. That jersey, that feeling when you’re in the dressing room in Aviva Stadium, that roar when you take to the pitch. It can’t be bought, it can’t be bottled – you have to live it. Aviva Stadium is one of the great stadia in the world to play in. I love every minute that I get to play there.” – Conor Murray As valued members of the exclusive IRFU Patrons Club, you will be familiar with the special moments we have experienced over recent years inside the iconic structure of the spectacular Aviva Stadium. Since its opening in 2010, the Aviva Stadium has turned into a veritable fortress for the Irish Team and a theatre of many epic victories and dramatic matches. Who present, will ever forget that thunderous near miss game against New Zealand in 2014? Denying England a grand slam and a record 23 victories in 2017? Combining the most inspiring facilities for our trail-blazing players with the finest spectator comforts, attendance at the Home of Irish Rugby allows you to soak up its history and live the passion with a memory to savour as a lifetime experience. Little wonder then, that “Tickets for the Aviva’’ are perpetually at a premium, as pre-match sell-out attendances have become the norm!

This is your invitation to remain secure in the knowledge of never having to worry about ticket accessibility while all around are clamouring for access to be a part of an Irish rugby movement reaching out for further glory.
