Aviva Stadium

Aviva Stadium

The Football Association of Ireland is currently engaged in the single largest infrastructural programme in its history that will see us emerge in 2010 as joint owners of the €411m Aviva Stadium, along with our partners in the IRFU. Construction is on schedule for completition in April 2010 and has already reached the final tier of what will be a new home for Irish football. By investing now in Aviva Stadium, it will in future provide steady funding for the grassroots of our game and will give all of us involved in Irish football a place that we can truly call home.
