Rugby Tours To Wexford

Rugby Tours to Wexford is a town in southeast Ireland, at the mouth of the River Slaney.

It’s known for its medieval lanes and the opera festival held in the modern National Opera House.

West Gate Heritage Tower is a restored 13th-century tollgate. It’s next to the old town walls and ruined 12th-century Selskar Abbey.

The Bullring market place, once a bull-baiting site, has a statue marking the 1798 Rebellion against British rule.

The town was founded by the Vikings in about 800 AD. They named it Veisajjoror, meaning “inlet of the mud flats”, and the name has changed only slightly into its present form.

Wexford has many rugby clubs in its county all within easy distance for travelling, with Wexford itself, New Ross, Gorey and Enniscorty all joining the rugby family, all strong rugby playing clubs.

No shortage of a fixture in Wexford.
