Hurloween

Instead of ghouls, we’ll be talking goals in Croke Park once again 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 John McGrath!
 

‘Hurloween’ Tours are suitable for children aged between 5 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, where you can explore our exhibitions, and younger visitors can enjoy our new Interactive Games Zone and Cú Chulainn's Den activity room. Every child on tour will receive a book telling the story of Setanta and other Irish legends – the perfect Halloween treat! 

Online advance booking is recommended to avoid disappointment.
