Munster GAA will report record-breaking gate receipts in excess of €5 million for their senior hurling championship for the second year in a row.

The total attendance for the 10-game round-robin stage of the competition was 270,750, 4,066 more than last season. That comes as somewhat of a surprise given Walsh Park was reopened this season after Waterford utilised the larger FBD Semple Stadium as its designated home venue in 2023.
