IRISH rugby bosses have amended the ticket prices and package structure this year’s Autumn international games at the Aviva Stadium. A consultation process with the provincial branches was entered into after rugby supporters voiced their concerns at the pricing structure in place.
The Irish Rugby Football Union has now said that new “amended linked ticket packages for the Guinness Series of games in November which will see Ireland play South Africa, Samoa, New Zealand and Argentina”, are now in place.
Clubs will now have the option to break up their allocation into two separate linked packages, South Africa/Samoa and New Zealand/Argentina.
Clubs will receive their quota of tickets for all four international matches in the Guinness Series as a single package, but have the option to distribute them to individual members within the club on a linked basis for the South Africa/Samoa and New Zealand/Argentina linked games.
The likelihood is that the South African, New Zealand and Argentinian games being sell-outs, while the Samon game would normally not attract as big a crowd to the other three ties. However, stand ticket prices are ranging from €100 for the South African and New Zealand games, €90 for the Argentinian game and €50 for a Samoan stand ticket.
All international match tickets are distributed through the provincial branches and clubs of Ireland. Any tickets that are not taken up through the clubs will be made available through the Irish Rugby Supporters Club and following that made available for public sale.
