Premiership side Harlequins will be hosting Irish province Munster in an exhibition game next year.

The encounter will take place at The Stoop on Friday, February 23.

This will also be Munster's first visit to The Stoop since their 18-12 win in the 2012/13 season of the Champions Cup quarter-final.

The game will also take place during an off week in the United Rugby Championship between Munster's clash against Scarlets on 16th February and their home game against Zebre at Musgrave Park on 1st March.

Munster are positioned eighth in the United Rugby Championship table with three wins from six matches.
