Sustainability Achievements at Croke Park

Croke Park is known to be a trailblazer when it comes to aspiring and achieving the highest levels of sustainability excellence in Ireland so a positive legacy can be left for future generations. 

In 2012, Croke Park became the first stadium in Ireland and Britain to secure both ISO14001 and ISO 20121 standards. We’re delighted to announce in recent weeks Croke Park has successfully been re-certified to the international standards for Sustainability Event Management and Health and Safety Management and become the very first stadium in the world to obtain certification to the newest international Environmental Standard ISO 14001:2015. An amazing achievement!
 
In other great green news – Croke Park were awarded the Excellence in Waste Management Award at the annual Green Awards, another great achievement!  Croke Park generated over 500 tonnes of waste in 2015 but the stadium’s commitment to sustainability and the involvement of all staff and visitors ensured that the stadium achieved its waste management goals of zero percent of waste going to landfill.
