Padraig Power, IRFU Commercial and Marketing Director, commented, “We are delighted to announce the 2014 Guinness Series fixtures. The 2013 Guinness Series was a phenomenal success with record tickets sales for the three games and a fantastic atmosphere generated by the fans, which continued throughout the RBS 6 Nations. We will again be looking at a variety of ticket option packages for families so that as many people as possible can come and support the RBS 6 Nations Champions. Our advice to fans is to get their tickets early, as last year those who left it late unfortunately missed out” Rory Sheridan, Diageo’s Head of Sponsorship – Western Europe, commented, “We are already looking forward to the visit of Australia, Georgia and South Africa for the 2014 Guinness Series this November. The 2013 Guinness Series delivered fantastic rugby, great excitement, noise and colour to the Aviva Stadium on which the Ireland team continued to build and build and the 2014 series looks set to deliver the same again. Irish rugby continues to deliver great days out and we are proud to be part of the Irish rugby family.” Tickets for the 2014 Guinness Series are now available for order through rugby clubs. A priority sales window for Supporters Club members will take place in advance of the public sale opening on Tuesday 3rd June.
