Cork reached the final after seeing off Limerick in the Munster final with a dramatic 1-26 to 1-24 win.
That was of course after they withstood a late barrage from Limerick in injury time.
Galway on the other hand had a less dramatic win in the Leinster final over Dublin at O'Moore Park.
The Tribesmen turned in a rousing second-half display to see off the Sky Blues. That was after they defeated Kilkenny in their Leinster sem-final clash.
And with both teams having to wait so long for their next game, this has all the ingredients to be a Semple Stadium classic.
