Kingsholm: To host big clash

The two sides met there in 2008, with the Irish victorious on that occasion.

Kingsholm has also played host to a number of internationals since the renovation of the South Stand brought the ground up to the standard required.

"I would like to express our excitement at welcoming the Barbarians and Ireland back to Kingsholm," Managing Director Ken Nottage told the Cherry and Whites' official website.

"The previous time these teams played here in Gloucester, it very much marked the start of a new era here at the club.

"We've now hosted a number of international fixtures here at the stadium but a Barbarians match is always a special one.

"It would be fantastic to get the tremendous backing of our supporters to illustrate the region's ever growing commitment to supporting the game at all levels."

Tickets for the game, priced from £15-£43 for adults, are now on sale.
