Today marked the launch of the All Ireland Ladies Football Championship and the Association has confirmed that both semi-finals and the final will be held at Croke Park.
The semi-finals will be staged on Sunday August 25th, with the final on Sunday September 15th.
Holders Dublin and Cork contested last year's final and both counties could be on course to meet in the last four this year.
The 2018 final attracted a crowd of 50,141 spectators.
Marie Hickey, President of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association, commented:
“We are looking forward to another superb summer of action in the TG4 All-Ireland Championships.
“We’ve already witnessed some brilliant football in the provincial competitions, and now attention turns to the race for All-Ireland Final places at Croke Park on September 15.
“We are also delighted to announce that our 2019 TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship semi-finals will be played at Croke Park on Sunday, August 25.
“This is another huge step forward for our Association and it will be great to watch the four semi-finalists battle it out at Croke Park for coveted places in the Final.
“I would once again like to pay tribute to our wonderful Championship sponsors and broadcast partners TG4.
“We were thrilled to sign a four-year extension with TG4 last year, taking us up to the end of the 2022 season.
“2020 will mark the 20th year of a partnership that dates back to 2000, when TG4 became title sponsors of our Championships.
“TG4 continue to take our sport to new, unprecedented and record-breaking levels.
“We also have a large overseas population to cater for and TG4 have the ability to provide coverage to people outside of Ireland, which is hugely important to us.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the GAA for their cooperation as we now look forward to not one, but two, huge occasions at Croke Park in August and September.
“Our colleagues in the GAA have also helped us to secure county grounds for many of our top-level games in the early rounds of the All-Ireland series.
“Ladies Football continues to lead the way in Irish women’s sport and after setting yet another attendance record for our TG4 All-Ireland Finals in 2018, we’re aiming to go even higher again in September.
“We need the help of clubs and counties to achieve that, and I’d appeal to all sports fans, at home and abroad, to get behind our magnificent players and follow their progress as they set out on their potential journeys to Croke Park, via the All-Ireland series.
“I wish all of the competing teams the very best of luck for the season ahead.
“It’s time for you, our supporters, to show that you’re a #ProperFan and #FollowOurJourney to Croke Park for the 2019 TG4 All-Ireland Finals.”
