⛳ The countdown is officially on!

Today marks the beginning of Limerick’s 2027 Ryder Cup Year to Go Celebration, running from Sunday, 4th to Thursday, 8th October, as we look ahead to welcoming the world to Adare next year.

Why Limerick?

A city rich in history, culture and character, Limerick is home to medieval landmarks, Georgian architecture, vibrant music, a thriving food scene and a proud sporting tradition.

From the River Shannon to the Wild Atlantic Way, County Limerick offers a genuine Irish welcome, with the beautiful village of Adare set to take centre stage for one of the world’s greatest sporting events in 2027.

Limerick is lived, not performed💚
