The full fixture list for this year's United Rugby Championship (URC) has been released. We have all the URC fixture's dates, times and places right here.
This year's tournament is set to kick off later than usual to accommodate for this year's Rugby World Cup happening this summer. The first URC game will begin on Saturday, October 21 with the Grand Final on June 22.
Reigning champions Munster begin their UCR title defence with a home match against Cell C Sharks on Saturday 21 October.
Elsewhere, Ulster will face Zebre Parma away in their first game of the 2023/24 season, whilst Connacht will host Ospreys.
Leinster will line out for their first game of the campaign on Sunday, 22 October against Glasgow.
The first clash between two Irish teams will be when Ulster takes on Connacht on 4 November, the following week the Ulster team will then face Munster on 10 November.
One day which Irish fans could keep an eye out for is Saturday, November 25, that day Munster will face their long-time country rivals Leinster in the United Rugby Championship.
