It will be an event like no other that is not to be missed

It’s hard to believe it has been a decade since Connacht defied all odds defeating Leinster to lift the PRO 12 title and fans can relive the glorious moment all over again.

Connacht Rugby have confirmed they will mark the ten year anniversary with a very special occasion on Friday September 25.

The exclusive event will take place in the Dexcom Stadium’s Atlantic Premium Level before Connacht’s opening round URC fixture with DHL Stormers.

There will be a whole host of special guests including former head coach Pat Lam as well as players from that title winning squad.

On the day there will be:

Drinks Reception: Enjoy a selection of complimentary beverages pre-match.

Decadent Dining: A vibrant mix of chef-led stations featuring a locally sourced, two-course buffet.

Half Time Refresh: Tea, coffee and sweet treats to refuel during the break.

Tickets are priced at €169 per person and include a Q+A with Pat Lam and the squad members there on the night as well as the premium padded seats for watching the Stormers game.

This will be an event unlike any other, to celebrate a victory unlike any other - you can get your tickets here.

Connacht defeated Leinster 20-10 in the Pro 12 (now known as the United Rugby Championship) final in 2016.
