THOUSANDS OF CLARE SUPPORTERS have been unsuccessful in their bid to secure tickets to Sunday’s Munster senior hurling final but a big screen will be erected at the Fair Green for Banner fans.

Clare County Council will host the screening at the Fair Green (Tim Smythe Park) from 12:30pm on Sunday until the final whistle in what is a free, non-ticket and alcohol free event.

Entry and exit will be via the normal points, with additional parking available on Sunday at Áras Contae an Chláir from 12.00pm until 5.00pm.

Mayor of Clare, Cllr Tony O’Brien (FF) said, “This will be a great event for all Clare supporters as our hurlers endeavour to secure their first Munster Senior Hurling title in 25 years. Clare County Council is delighted to facilitate the screening and bring people together to celebrate the occasion in our county town”.

Chief Executive of Clare County Council, Pat Dowling stated, “The current Clare team has given us huge excitement in the Munster Hurling Championship over the past number of seasons, and the screening at the Fair Green on Sunday will be a great opportunity for the people of Clare to enjoy the occasion together”.
