Croke Park's first-ever trial of reusable cups

For this year’s Croke Park Sustainability Day, this Saturday 27th July, Croke Park is running its first-ever trial of reusable cups. As part of the stadium’s focus on reducing single-use plastic, the bars in the Lower Hogan Stand will host a pilot deposit-return scheme to cut down on the amount of plastic waste produced on match-day. Pint drinkers will pay a refundable €1 deposit with the purchase of their first drink from the participating bars and this deposit can be reclaimed at any of the many return points throughout the stand.
 
Where:                Hogan Stand Lower
 
How:             
  1. Pay a refundable €1 deposit with your drink order and receive a reusable pint glass
  2. Exchange your glass at the bar with each new drink order
  3. Return your glass at one of the return points to redeem your €1 deposit
 
The Croke Park Green Team and volunteers from Dalkey Scuba Diving Club will be helping out on the day.
