The 33-year-old has won the Six Nations title, including a Grand Slam, and two triple crowns with Ireland.

Since joining the Province at the start of the 2018/19 season, Beirne has made 85 appearances for Munster. He was key to their URC win in 2023.

Commenting on today’s announcement, Tadhg Beirne said: “It is a source of great pride to represent Ireland and Munster and I am delighted to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

“Playing in Ireland is a dream come true and I believe that Irish Rugby is in a strong place with competitive environments across all of the Provinces continuing to drive the highest levels of competition at National Team level. I am hugely excited about the future and will do my best to hopefully deliver for our amazing supporters over the coming seasons.”
