The International Rugby Experience, now open on Limerick’s O’Connell Street, is a world class, interactive celebration of what it takes to become a Legend!
Visitors to the Experience move through six, awe-inspiring stages that follow the game from a community, grass roots level up to the players, clubs and nations that have reached legendary status. Rooted in World Rugby’s values of Passion, Discipline, Integrity, Solidarity and Respect, they will discover the real people behind the game, as well as how it has impacted politics, transformed communities and improved lives.
Fun, interactive trials and exciting, immersive theatre spaces make it the perfect destination for all ages.
Stunning 360 degree views of Limerick city centre ensure that the sixth floor Legends Gallery is a jaw-dropping end to this unique, interactive, experience.
The International Rugby Experience gift store features everything from locally produced contemporary ceramics, customised collections of rugby inspired prints and unique artwork of local landmarks, to bespoke branded clothing and much more. The light filled café offers a selection of sweet and savoury treats, quality coffee and a delightful setting overlooking the city from the first floor.
