The Tailteann Cup quarter-final between Kildare and Laois will take place at O’Connor Park in Tullamore on Sunday.
Kildare, as a result of finishing top of their group in the round-robin stage, have home advantage for the game but with St Conleth’s Park undergoing redevelopment and Hawkfield deemed not big enough, the Leinster derby has been fixed instead for Tullamore at 1.15 on Sunday.
The other three quarter-finals will take place on Saturday with Down hosting Wicklow in Newry (4.30), Sligo at home to Limerick in Markievicz Park (5.0) and Antrim travelling to Brewster Park to face Fermanagh (6.0).
It has also been confirmed that RTÉ will broadcast two All-Ireland SFC round-robin games live on Sunday – Galway v Armagh (1.45) and Dublin v Mayo (3.45).
