The British & Irish Lions tour to Australia is happening between June and August 2025, and there’s no better place to catch all of the action than right here at Malones Leith!
Excitingly, the Lions will be playing their first ever match in Ireland in a warm-up match against Argentina.
We’ll be showing all of the games across our HD screens, and will even be opening from 9am and serving a special brunch menu ahead of all morning fixtures.
