The countdown to the finals weekend of the Amlin Challenge Cup and Heinkene Cup in Dublin is reaching a critical stage.
The Heineken Cup final is returning to Dublin for a third time. On the first occasion, Ulster became the first Irish club to win the European title in 1999, and then it was the turn of Toulouse to defeat Perpignan at the old Lansdowne Road. It will be the first time the Amlin Challenge Cup final has been staged in Ireland.
There are still tickets available for the Amlin Challenge Cup final, which will be played at the home of Leinster Rugby at the RDS on Friday, 17 May, via

There are also tickets available for both the Heineken Cup and Challenge finals as part of official ERC accommodation offers for what is the biggest weekend of European club rugby. Visit

Sixteen participating hotels, ranging from 3 to 5 star, are part of this official programme run on behalf of ERC by the Manchester-based company, Byrom PLC. Prices start from €170 per person, based on double occupancy, for the Amlin final on its own, and €230 for a single-night stay on the Saturday of the Heineken Cup.
With a mere 116 days to go to ERC's European Finals weekend in Dublin on Monday there is little time to spare in deciding whether or not you want to be a part of one of the highlights of the annual European sporting calendar.
