Croke Park Stadium

Any sports fanatic who visits Ireland should try to time their stay around an Irish football or ancient hurling game at Croke Park Stadium. Gaelic football is a mix of American football, soccer and basketball and the exciting matches reveal countrywide rivalries and loyalties. Irish hurling is an ancient  game that has been played for millennia and resembles a rougher form of field hockey. The atmosphere at Croke Park is electric, especially for the Gaelic Football Final each September. The stadium has a small museum that offers an excellent introduction to the games and their histories. Indagare can arrange private tours of the stadium, including the skywalk that offers 360-degree views of Dublin, as well as VIP tickets to matches.
