Kilkenny have learned their hurling championship fate with Tipperary confirmed as their opponents in the All-Ireland SHC Semi-Final in Croke Park on Sunday July, 6.
The last four meeting will be the first time that the local rivals have met in the championship since the 2019 All-Ireland Final with the Premier County returning to this stage of the competition on the back of a six year absence.
The mouthwatering semi-final affair has come about on the back of Dublin claiming a shock victory over Limerick that sees the side from the capital meet Munster Champions Cork in the other semi-final while Tipperary ran out rather convincing winners over a disappointing Galway side.
The Kilkenny and Tipperary game will have a 4pm throw-in on the Sunday with a big possibility of the Kilkenny camogie team playing in an All-Ireland Quarter-Final beforehand having sealed their place in the knockout stages of the senior championship.
The Cork and Dublin game will take place on the Saturday evening where there will be a 5pm start with big crowds expected on both days.
The two hurling games will be live on RTE Television.
