Cork, Tipperary All-Ireland Hurling Final Tickets Sold Out Amid Travel Demand

The All-Ireland hurling final between Cork and Tipperary has generated unprecedented demand for tickets, with Cork's full allocation already distributed and no further requests being met by the county board. Irish Rail has added extra train services between Cork, Tipperary, and Dublin, although these sold out quickly and more are being arranged; travelers are reminded to pre-book tickets as none will be sold on the day. For fans unable to attend the match at Croke Park, Cork City Council and Cork GAA are hosting the free, family-friendly Rebels’ Fanzone at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, where the game will be shown live on big screens with pre- and post-match entertainment in an alcohol-free environment. Tickets for the Fanzone are limited, available online, and include a cancellation and transfer window to maximize attendance. Additionally, Bus Éireann has scheduled a special Cork to Dublin bus service to accommodate supporters traveling to the final. Despite high demand and limited availability, these arrangements aim to provide alternative ways for Cork supporters to participate in the excitement of the final.
