Old Crescent RFC in conjunction with www.activeireland.ie, will host the 2022 Pig n Porter Tag Rugby Festival at its grounds in Takumi Park and at the University of Limerick, on Saturday 9th July, with over 100 tag teams taking part.

The Pig n Porter Festival will showcase the proud sporting tradition of Limerick to a wide audience and will provide a welcome boost to the local tourism and hospitality sectors, including accommodation providers, bars, restaurants, and visitor attractions.

Teams will be returning from across Ireland and the UK to experience the unique festival buzz of Pig n Porter.

Speaking at the launch, Paul Donnellan, President of Old Crescent RFC said "We look forward to welcoming back all the taggers and their friends, old and new, to Limerick on July 9th." He concluded "Pig n Porter would not be possible without the support of Heineken and Limerick City and County Council, along with the many local service providers that help us create the Festival site.”
