Once in a lifetime GAA All-Ireland travel experience

All-Ireland Championship tickets are like gold dust, and Crafted Ireland, a custom tour company based in Dublin, is granting North Americans the luck of the Irish with this rare opportunity to attend an All-Ireland Senior Championship Final as part of tailor-made holiday travel packages this September.

“These uniquely Irish games – Hurling and Gaelic Football – powerfully showcase Irish culture, heritage and tradition at their best. Our goal is to ensure visitors authentic views into our Irish culture; and that is why, along with Croke Park Stadium, we’ve created this chance-of-a-lifetime travel experience that includes the All-Ireland Senior Championship Final as the centerpiece of their vacations. There’s no better way to experience a nation than witnessing its people immersed in their sport,” said Crafted Ireland’s Managing Director, Crothúr Murphy.

When it comes to team sports events in Ireland, there is none more popular than the All-Ireland Senior Championship Finals organized by the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). These games are unique in that they are played by non-paid amateur players which heightens the intensity of Match Day – a culmination of years of hard work, passion for and dedication to Irish sport.
