Manchester United will return to the Aviva on August 6 for a preseason friendly with Athletic Bilbao.
The Red Devils have a huge following in Ireland and will return to Lansdowne Road for the third time since the stadium's redevelopment in 2010.
United begin their pre-season tour with a trip to face old rivals Leeds in Oslo on July 16 before taking on Lyon in Edinburgh three days later.

Erik Ten Hag's side will then head to America to play a string of games against Arsenal, Wrexham, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund before concluding their tour with a trip to Dublin six days before the start of the 2023/24 Premier League season.
Manchester United’s Football Director, John Murtough, said: “United has such strong connections with Ireland, being the birthplace of great players such as George Best, Roy Keane, and of course Denis Irwin. We know how passionate our Irish supporters are and it’s a pleasure to be able to bring this game to Dublin.
“After returning from tour in the US, Erik and the team will be eager to put the finishing touches on their preparations for the new season. A game against high-quality La Liga opposition such as Athletic Bilbao will be a great opportunity to gain fitness and playing time before the start of the 2023/24 campaign, as well as providing entertainment for our Irish fans.”
United legend Denis Irwin said: “Manchester United has strong links to Ireland through a great roster of past players that has also represented the national team, so the prospect of this friendly against Athletic Bilbao at the Aviva Stadium is hugely exciting. The team has always attracted huge support in Ireland and so playing this match in Dublin will I’m sure make it an even more special occasion for the players and fans alike."
The 13-time Premier League champions have already played twice at the Aviva Stadium and famously featured in the first soccer game after its re-opening in 2010 when they beat a League of Ireland XI 7-1.
