Join Joe Schmidt at this rare live appearance as he discusses his highly anticipated memoir Ordinary Joe. Schmidt will tell the story of his life and influences: the experiences and management ideas that made him the coach, and the man, that he is today. And he will share intimate insights into the stresses and joys of coaching a national team in both victory and defeat, through the 2018 Grand Slam and the 2019 Rugby World Cup.

Joe Schmidt has just stepped down as Ireland coach having achieved success on a scale never before seen in Irish rugby. Two Heineken Cups in three seasons with Leinster. Three Six Nations championships in six seasons with Ireland, including the Grand Slam in 2018. And a host of firsts: the first Irish victory in South Africa; the first Irish defeat of the All Blacks, and then a second; and Ireland’s first number 1 world ranking.

Don’t miss this thrilling opportunity to put your own questions to Joe Schmidt, and to hear the inspirational story of how an ordinary man helped his teams to achieve extraordinary things.

*Every ticket includes a SIGNED copy of Joe Schmidt’s autobiography Ordinary Joe*
