The match is scheduled to be played on November 9 at Aviva Stadium as part of New Zealand's tour of the northern hemisphere.

As part of their trip, the All Blacks will also play France, Italy, and England.

Munster Rugby has hosted international opponents, including the All Blacks, Australia, and the Māori All Blacks, at Thomond Park in Limerick since the venue's reconstruction in 2008.

“We will be delighted to welcome the All Blacks XV to Thomond Park in November as part of their Northern Hemisphere tour,” Munster Rugby CEO Ian Flanagan stated in response to the news.

“We have a long and rich history of hosting international sides and I’m sure November’s match will add another exciting chapter to this tradition.”
