A Year in the life of The Croke Park

A year of celebration

The new cocktail menu at The Croke Park is the perfect spot for group cocktails in Dublin city.

It’s been an incredible year for The Croke Park (how could it not be, with Beyonce performing just across the road!) With amazing gigs and matches in Croke Park, launches within the hotel, incredible performances from the team and some accolades along the way, there’s plenty to celebrate.

There’s a big overhaul of the terrace taking place at the moment, and the new space will look glorious when the weather warms up in the spring. But until then, the decorations are up and festivity is the name of the game in The Croke Park.
