Last year Limerick's Munster Camogie Championship clash with Tipperary was played at FBD Semple Stadium before the Munster SHC clash between the two counties.
Thurles will once again host the Premier camogie side in their Munster quarter-final against Cork before the two sides meet in the hurling championship on April 19. The winner of this game will take on Deady's side the following week.
The Munster final is scheduled for the weekend of May 16/17 and will precede either Tipperary v Clare on Saturday or Waterford’s trip to the Ennis Road on Sunday, depending on the camogie finalists.
“The inclusion of four curtain-raisers (three camogie / one Ladies Football) ahead of our Munster Senior Hurling and Football Championship games once again highlights the strong and growing partnership between our respective organisations. It is very pleasing to see this initiative continue into 2026, and we are committed to further strengthening the connection between our games in the years ahead,” said Munster GAA chairman Tim Murphy.
Munster Camogie Chairperson Christine Ryan added: "Our players relish the opportunity to perform on Munster Championship matchdays, experiencing the unique atmosphere of packed stadiums. These occasions play a vital role in raising the profile of camogie and showcasing our game to an even wider audience.”
In May, the ladies football clash between Kerry and Cork will act as the curtain-raiser to the Munster SFC final.
