Rugby has emerged in recent decades as one of Ireland’s most successful and most popular sports and Tourism Ireland is supporting the IRFU’s bid to host the Rugby World Cup in 2023. Tourism Ireland is also encouraging rugby fans around the world to come and visit the island of Ireland this summer, to attend the Women’s Rugby World Cup. Over the coming months, the organisation will be reminding rugby fans that Ireland is a great place to visit, where they’re guaranteed a wonderful experience and the warmest of welcomes.
