The 2011 National Hurling League (known as the Allianz Hurling League for sponsorship reasons) was the 80th season of the National Hurling League.

Ticket prices

In January 2011, the GAA announced a reduction in ticket prices for the 2011 National Hurling League.[1] The decision to cut prices was announced at a Central Council meeting and will see the cost of admission to a league game in the first division of the NHL dropping from €15 to €13, with a €5 admission to lower-level hurling games.[2]
