The GAA have published their master fixture list for the 2018 season.
Owing to changes agreed upon at this year's Congress, the calendar has been tweaked this year with the month of April playing host to only two inter-county games, the Division 1 and Division 2 finals in Gaelic football, played on April 1st.
To free up the month of April, the League will begin in the final weekend of January. The first game to throw in in the 2018 National League will be the meeting of London and Carlow in Ruislip at 1.00pm on Saturday 27th January.
The provincial championships get underway in the first weekend of May, with Leitrim meeting New York and London playing Sligo in the Connacht championship.
The provincial championships will all be completed by the 1st of July. The All-Ireland hurling final will be played on August 19 with the football showpiece taking place on September 2.
