TICKET SALES ARE heading towards the 30,000 mark for Saturday’s URC final between Leinster and the Bulls at Croke Park.
The first batch of tickets went on pre-sale to Leinster season ticket holders and registered URC fans yesterday morning and it’s understood that 18,000 were snapped up quickly.

The URC final then went on general sale this morning and the uptake has continued.
As things stand, tickets for the top tier of the 82,300-capacity Croke Park are not available and that will only change if overall sales surge towards and beyond the 40,000 mark.
Saturday’s final will be broadcast by TG4 and Premier Sports, with kick-off at 5pm.
While the Bulls have suffered a big blow with number eight Cameron Hanekom ruled out of this weekend’s clash, Leinster are hoping to have at least a couple of players back from injury.
Garry Ringrose [calf] and Josh van der Flier [hamstring] may return, although Hugo Keenan [calf] and Tadhg Furlong [calf] are deemed less likely to return at this stage.
Leinster said they will make a final decision on that quartet’s fitness later this week, but Caelan Doris, Robbie Henshaw, Will Connors, and Brian Deeny will definitely miss out.
