Special evening to honour Munster duo at City Hall
This month Cork City Hall will host an expertly curated live event celebrating two of Ireland’s most revered rugby players, Peter O’Mahony and Conor Murray. The event on Friday 18 July promises an evening of insight, laughter, and legacy, hosted by the hilarious Donncha O’Callaghan.
A native of Cork, Peter has become one of Irish rugby’s most respected and formidable leaders known for his relentless physicality, unshakable focus, and deep pride in every jersey he’s worn.
Having started rugby career with Cork Constitution RFC, Peter rose through the ranks to captain Munster and Ireland with distinction.
With over 100 caps for Ireland, three British & Irish Lions tours, multiple Six Nations titles, and a Grand Slam to his name, his influence at the breakdown, command in the lineout, and heart-on-sleeve leadership have earned him a place among the modern greats and the profound respect of fans across the world.
Regarded as one of the finest scrum-halves of his generation, Conor Murray has shaped Ireland’s success for over a decade. A product of Garryowen FC, he quickly rose through the ranks into the Munster setup and became a defining presence in Irish rugby’s golden era.
With over 110 international caps, a central role in three British & Irish Lions tours, and a litany of Six Nations victories, his presence has been vital in Ireland’s most historic rugby moments. This September, he will release his first book, a personal account of the journey behind the jersey.
A man with as much presence on stage as he had on the pitch, Donncha O’Callaghan will guide the evening’s conversation. With over 90 caps for Ireland, a Grand Slam victory, two Heineken Cups with Munster, and a British & Irish Lions tour, Donncha brings credibility and connection to the stage.
The evening by Elevate Events will see VIP guests welcomed through a private entrance on Eglinton Street, where they will enjoy a refined reception experience and the opportunity to meet their sporting heroes. All other guests will enter through the main Cork City Hall entrance.
Inside, the Concert Hall will be transformed with a custom-built stage, immersive lighting design, large-scale LED screens, and cinematic AV production. Every element has been thoughtfully crafted to create not just a viewing experience, but a sense of occasion transforming the iconic venue into an intimate and exclusive space. Guests will be transported into the story of two of Ireland’s greatest rugby players in a setting worthy of the legacy they’ve built.
Platinum tickets are now sold out, and only a very limited number of gold packages remain, offering the chance to meet your heroes and receive a professional photograph with both Peter and Conor. Standard seated tickets are moving quickly, and the event may be a complete sell-out.
