In light of the Government’s decision to permit a limited number of spectators at sporting events, the Offaly GAA Management Committee have prepared match-day arrangements for the coming weeks.
A maximum of 200 supporters are permitted to attend games in Bord na Mona O’Connor Park, Tullamore, and St Brendan’s Park, Birr, and this is reduced to just 100 at all other venues in the county.
All available tickets will be distributed to the two competing clubs and will only go on general sale via a link on the Offaly GAA website if returned unsold to the County Board. No tickets will be on sale at venues, and there is no scope to offer concessions to students or children.
Offaly GAA County Board realise that for upcoming championship semi-finals and finals, the demand for tickets will far exceed the number available and, therefore, as many games as possible will be streamed live via www.247.tv/gaa
Regrettably, it will not be possible to accept Season Tickets, O.A.P. Passes, or ‘Teastas’ Passes for the remainder of 2020.
All those who purchased a Season Ticket for Offaly GAA club games in 2020 will receive one free of charge in 2021.
Offaly GAA County Board wish to thank all our clubs, supporters and volunteers for their co-operation and goodwill over the past six months and, once again, request that only those with a valid ticket attempt to gain admission to our games.
