Clare vs Dublin League Final Sunday: Everything You Need Before You Go
TUS Gaelic Grounds in Limerick opens at 12:30 on Sunday for the 1:45pm throw-in between Clare and Dublin in the Allianz Hurling League Division 1B Final – and the context that makes this a different kind of league final Sunday is the 44,000 supporters Limerick City and County Council expects across the double header, with Limerick meeting Cork in the Division 1A Final at 4pm on the same ground, making Sunday afternoon one of the great hurling days of the early season.

The ticket information that cannot be ignored before leaving for Limerick is the screenshot policy, because TUS Gaelic Grounds is operating a strict QR code or printed ticket system for this event and a screenshot of a confirmation email will not get you through the turnstiles – and the queue behind you will not be sympathetic when the gate does not open and the 1:45 throw-in is twenty minutes away. Check your ticket format before you leave the house.
For supporters travelling from Clare, the most direct route runs through the M7 into Limerick city – under forty minutes from Ennis in normal traffic, which on a Sunday ahead of a 44,000-attendance event is not normal traffic. Parking around the ground fills from about 12:15 on big match days, so arriving before noon gives you the comfortable options.

TG4’s GAA Beo coverage begins before the 1:45 throw-in with pre-game analysis from the match broadcaster that has covered Clare hurling across all the significant days of the last decade, and the production quality for a divisional league final in 2026 is the same quality that will cover the Munster Championship and the All-Ireland series when the summer arrives. For supporters staying at home, TG4 is the option; for those who cannot get April 19 tickets in Ennis, where fewer than 15% of the allocation remains as of Friday, the Waterford game will be available on GAA+.
