With a selection of activities, Heineken is pulling out all the stops to get fans prepared for a mouth-watering weekend of rugby. At The Huntsman Inn in Galway, tiered seating, big screens and the Heineken Cup marquee will recreate the stadium atmosphere for fans who have missed out on tickets. From 1pm on Saturday the search will be on at The Huntsman Inn for the Heineken Fan of the Match culminating in four lucky fans winning the last match tickets in town.
Massimo’s Bar in Galway will be decked out with a specially created piece of street art inspired by the passion of rugby, the spirit of Connacht and the first hosting of a Heineken Cup game in Galway. Taking the Heineken Cup atmosphere across the city, rugby fans can win on-the-spot official Heineken Cup prizes with Heineken Pass in 15 pubs throughout Galway.
