Matchday protocols different at new Páirc Uí Chaoimh

Supporters going to this weekend’s All-Ireland senior hurling quarter-finals in the remodelled Páirc Uí Chaoimh are being advised to get to Cork as early as they can.

Clare face Tipperary on Saturday afternoon with Wexford taking on Waterford the following day, and Páirc Uí Chaoimh stadium operations manager Bob Ryan says supporters need to make allowances for the fact that the stadium has changed hugely as it has been refurbished.

“We’d advise people to come earlier this weekend,” said Ryan. “Go to the city and park in the city car parks, and then get buses or walk down. It’s only a 15-20-minute walk down.
