Contracts Signed for Tallaght Stadium North Stand

On Friday 22 November, South Dublin County Council officially signed contracts with Cooney Architects for the design of the Tallaght Stadium North Stand and the remodelling of the Main Stand.

Building on the success of Tallaght Stadium, South Dublin County Council commissioned a feasibility report from Cooney Architects in 2018 that explored the option of developing a new North Stand in Tallaght Stadium and boosting capacity to 10,000.

The report also looked at developing improved press facilities and seating as well as additional corporate facilities on a new second floor to be developed in the existing Main Stand.

This news follows the opening of the South Stand in March of this year and the recently announced plans to develop an advertising and marketing strategy. In conjunction with these plans, South Dublin County Council intends to promote Tallaght Stadium as an events venue to include music, festivals and all aspects of community events. With stadium seating and temporary on-field seating, the venue will accommodate up to 20,000 people.
