COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, February 26, 2024

MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor L. Whelan

"To ask the management if there are plans for the use of murals and local artists work on the grey walls of the Tallaght stadium? Similar has been done in other football club grounds, such as Phibsborough (see picture attached). Not only does this brighten up the area, it gives opportunity for local artists to work in collaboration with the council and the club?"

REPORT:

The Council will not permit any murals on the walls around Tallaght Stadium. The Stadium is operated as a Council facility, hosting in the main all Shamrock Rovers games, but the venue also hosts International games , along with other clubs games in European competitions.

In addition, we host many Community events, as well as other sports, both on the pitch and within the Conference and Meeting spaces that are available. Organisations can look to book and hold events within the revamped Corporate areas of the Main Stand as well.
