Australia will send an International Rules team to Ireland this October for the first time since 2006.
The AFL have announced Tests at Limerick on October 23 and in Dublin on October 30.
Ireland was scheduled to host the series last year, but it was postponed because of the global financial crisis.
Australia last played away in 2006 and a succession of on-field clashes meant the Gaelic Athletic Association nearly abandoned the concept.
But it resumed in Australia two years ago, with Ireland winning the series two Tests to nil.
