Informazioni sul luogo

Thomond Park is the home stadium of Munster Rugby and a central anchor of Limerick sporting life.

The stadium takes its name from the medieval kingdom of Thomond and belongs to Munster Rugby, hosting resident clubs Shannon RFC and UL Bohemian RFC. Soccer side Limerick FC also shared the pitch while their home ground at Markets Field underwent rebuilding. Murray O Laoire Architects designed the modern stands, keeping the traditional stadium title intact while assigning commercial naming rights exclusively to individual stands.

Matchdays follow strict local etiquette. Supporters roar during play and sing anthems like The Fields of Athenry and Stand Up and Fight, yet observe complete silence whenever a kicker attempts a goal. Historic terracing carried local titles such as the Popular side and Ballynanty End, establishing a tradition of biting terrace commentary that accompanied celebrated Munster victories over the touring New Zealand All Blacks.
