What Our Guests Say

Everything ran like clockwork from check in, match tickets, transfers to the hotel, stadium and airport. Very professionally done.

Anna, Cork Toulouse v Munster, January 2023

Excellent service and knowledgeable staff assisting us through the whole event from start to finish was so encouraging for me and my son to know.

Noel, Limerick Toulouse v Munster, January 2023

Just want to thank you for all your organisation and help during our trip to NZ. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip with all the add on trips and pre match hospitality The results made it even more enjoyable. We can say “we were there”.

Valerie & Bobby, Portadown NZ Summer Tour 2022

Had a great tour to Spain and would like to thank Rugby Travel Ireland for all their help organising it. Looking forward to something similar again in the future.

Villiers School Team Tour to Salou - 2022

Just a quick note to say how brilliant the trip to New Zealand was. Everything went very well and we had a ball. The series win was fantastic and we celebrated as only the Irish can. Our fellow supporters and the leaders gelled together and, given how up in the air everything was over the past few months, the tour really was a triumph. Here’s to the next trip.

Linda & Lar, Dublin. NZ Summer Tour 2022

Valerie & Bobby, Portadown. NZ Summer Tour 2022

A huge thank you to yourselves and all the team at Rugby Travel Ireland for a fantastic weekend in Paris, well done! Here’s hoping we will be going to another match next year!!

Laura, Dublin. France v Ireland - Six Nations Paris 2022

Just wanted to thank you and your team for a great weekend. It was just brilliant to be travelling again and as ever ye were superb . Looking forward to many more trips with ye.

Ann, Cork. France v Ireland, Paris 2022

I just wanted to record my grateful thanks for a wonderful trip which went well beyond my expectations with regard to the service delivered. Everything that was within your control, and a few things that weren't, turned up trumps. Airport check-in, aircraft seating, transfers, hotel check-in arrangements, pre-match lunch, weather etc, were perfectly organised and executed.

Aidan, Dublin. France v Ireland, Paris 2022

I thought the trip was very well organised. I took my 14-year-old son on his first away trip, and he loved every minute. We never considered the ticket seat location in the stadium, that was an unbelievable surprise for him when he noticed we were in around the half way line. Very happy young man after his week. Thanks to all involved.

Anthony, Limerick. Toulouse v Munster, January 2023

Thank you for a wonderful rugby trip. From our first communication, Patrick and I felt so welcome and very much cared for. Thank you also for your generous hospitality in treating us to a real feast in Japan.

Anna Wasabi Tour - RWC 2019

We had a brilliant time. The whole tour was very well organised and it was great to see so much in a relatively short period of time. A first class tour! Thank you all very much.

Economic impact report | munster v crusaders.

28th March 2024 By The Editor

Munster Rugby

Munster Rugby's clash against Crusaders was presented in association with Pinergy. Inpho

Munster Rugby and Pinergy are pleased to present findings of an independent Economic Impact Assessment, commissioned by Repucon Consulting, related to last month’s Munster v Crusaders fixture.

The unique match was held at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh in front of a sell-out 40,885 attendance. The highly anticipated clash saw Munster Rugby bid to overcome Super Rugby Champions Crusaders in the first-ever clash between the teams.

It was Munster Rugby’s second game at the venue following the hugely successful fixture against South Africa A in November 2022 which saw Munster overcome South Africa A in front of 41,400 supporters.

The game was presented in association with Pinergy, Munster Rugby’s official energy partner.

An online economic impact survey was distributed to ticket holders by Munster Rugby in the immediate aftermath of the game and had a total of 2,008 replies.

Please see the findings of the report below.

  • The majority of the attendance travelled from within the province of Munster to SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh with 5,111 (12.5%) coming from outside the province and 900 people (2%) travelling from overseas.
  • The total direct expenditure generated by all attendees was €5.6 million.
  • Total direct expenditure by visitors from outside Cork city and county is estimated at €2.7 million. This figure relates to match attendance expenditure and does not include pre match expenditure on tickets.
  • The number of accommodation bed nights generated for Cork city and county was 5,100.
  • The average overnight spectator spend per night was €233 and the average spend by day-trippers to the game was €76.
  • In addition to the economic impact of visitors to Cork, there was an estimated €2.9 million spent by city- and county-based attendees to the game.

Commenting on the report’s findings, Pinergy Chief Executive Officer, Enda Gunnell said: “We were delighted to be the presenting partner for this unique match in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh last month. This independent assessment highlights the positive impact that this game had on the local Cork economy.”

Ian Flanagan, Munster Rugby Chief Executive Officer, said: “We would like to thank the IRFU, the GAA, Cork GAA, and Crusaders for facilitating our request to host this fixture. Welcoming 40,885 Munster supporters to Supervalu Páirc Uí Chaoimh was a unique and special occasion and we are hugely appreciative of your continued support.”
