Leinster’s Champions Cup quarter-final against Ulster sells out

Leinster’s Heineken Champions Cup quarter-final against Ulster at the Aviva stadium on March 30th is a sell-out, with the tickets that went on general sale on Thursday snapped up in a matter of hours.

Ulster have already sold out their 25 per cent allocation for the game (approximately 12,000), while the rest of the tickets will go to Leinster season ticket holder.

A total of 15,000 tickets went on sale on Thursday morning at 10am and a Leinster spokesman confirmed that the bulk of those had gone by 1pm.

Ulster have qualified for the knock-out stages for the first time since 2014, when they lost away to Saracens.
