Hurloween Tours at the GAA Museum

Instead of ghouls, we’ll be talking goals in Croke Park this Halloween with the return of our ‘Hurloween’ tours!

These special tours are where GAA-mad kids can learn more about Ireland’s ancient sport from the time of Setanta right up to the era of Shane O'Donnell!

‘Hurloween’ Tours are suitable for children aged between five and 12 accompanied by an adult. Tours include a visit to the Croke Park dressing rooms and a walk pitchside where our guides will teach you more about the history and skill of hurling and camogie.

The trip also includes a ‘Warriors and Hurlers Workshop’ where younger visitors will learn more about the story of Setanta, a master hurler who used his sliotar and camán to slay the hound of Chulainn and receive the new name Cú Chulainn!

Everyone on tour will have a chance to visit the GAA Museum and Interactive Games Zone, and every child on tour will receive a book telling the story of Setanta and other Irish legends – the perfect Halloween treat!

Tours take place at 10.30, 12.30 and 14.30 from Tuesday 29th October to Thursday 31st October. Tickets must be booked in advance online and the visit will last approx 90 minutes. Book now using the calendar below!
