PIG 'N' PORTER 2026
In partnership with Old Crescent RFC and supported by Heineken 0.0, ITRA is delighted to bring you the 2025 Pig 'N' Porter Festival. Pig 'N' Porter is a festival on and off the pitch, with a reputation across the world for great tag and a great party. We hope you'll join us in Limerick on Saturday 13th June 2026 for this year's tournament.
Due to additional capacity and a revised schedule, all teams will be accommodated at Old Crescent RFC. Deposits are fully refundable up to 1st May 2026, which is the due date for the full team payment.
Our accommodation partners at the University of Limerick are hosting teams in self-catering accommodation in Castletroy, Co. Limerick. Click below to navigate to their site and make a booking directly with them.
Parking at Old Crescent RFC will be at a premium due to the increased number of teams. Pre-book your parking for just 5 euro and avoid a 10 euro charge - or a full car park! - on the day.
Date
The tag tournament takes place on Saturday 13th June. Most teams choose to make a weekend of it, and begin the festivities on the Friday evening.

ITRA has made arrangements with the University of Limerick for use of their accommodation facilities.

Hosts
Old Crescent RFC has hosted the Pig n’Porter since its inception in 2001. The club has 11 pitches for tag.
​
Old Crescent RFC is the host for ITRA's leagues in Limerick, running year-round twice a week.
​
Additional games will be held over the wall at Crescent Comprehensive School. Please make sure you register for the venue you want to be playing in.
​
OCRFC also hosts the official after-party, which kicks off immediately after the tag ends and runs late into the night. ​
Tournament
Pig 'N' Porter is a mixed social tag tournament for teams of up to 14 players.
Teams will be graded according to the level they usually play at. There are no quotas of any kind, but your playing history and team list will contribute to your grading.
Your registration fee covers your entry to the tag tournament and the on-site entertainment during the day, and 14 wristbands for entry into the club in the evening for live music and one hell of an after-party!
