NEWS: The path to the 2024 United Rugby Championship Final will go through Limerick and Pretoria.

Both semifinal games will take place on Saturday, June 15 in back-to-back slots across Ireland and South Africa to decide which teams will progress to the URC Final on June 22.

The Bulls will host Leinster at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria at 16.00 local time (15.00 IRE & UK; 14.00 GMT), followed by defending champions Munster’s clash with Glasgow Warriors at Thomond Park, Limerick at 18.00 local (19.00 SA time; 17.00 GMT).

Should Munster progress to the Final, they will be the host team due to their No.1 ranking from the league standings and the match will take place at Thomond Park at 17.00 local (18.00 SA) on Saturday, June 22.

If Glasgow Warriors (No.4) win, then their league ranking will place them as the away team in the Final with either the Bulls (No.2) or Leinster (No.3) earning the right to host the game.
