SISK SIGNS UP FOR €21M ROYAL REDEVELOPMENT


Páirc Tailteann Stand construction marks major milestone for Meath

Sisk and Meath GAA have announced that a €21M contract has been signed for the redevelopment of the stand at Páirc Tailteann. This signing represents an important milestone in delivering enhanced facilities for players, members, supporters, and the wider community.

The agreement was formalised on Saturday, January 10th, 2026, at Páirc Tailteann in Navan, County Meath, with invited representatives from the GAA, local public officials, and key stakeholders in attendance.

The stand redevelopment is a central element of the ongoing improvement programme at Páirc Tailteann, designed to ensure the venue continues to meet modern expectations for safety, accessibility, supporter experience, and community use.

Shane Glynn, Regional Director, Sisk, said: “Sisk is proud to be delivering the redevelopment of the stand at Páirc Tailteann. Having completed the redevelopment of Croke Park over 25 years ago and more recently Páirc Uí Chaoimh, we recognise the cultural significance of the stadium to the local community and the benefits that the redevelopment will have for future generations to come. We look forward to beginning works on site with our local supply chain partners and delivering the stand to highest possible standards.”


Jason Plunkett, Meath GAA County Chairperson, said: “Today is a landmark day for Meath GAA and for everyone who has Páirc Tailteann in their hearts. The contract signing moves this project from planning into delivery, and it reflects years of commitment from volunteers, supporters, and our partners who have worked steadily to bring the redevelopment to this point. This new stand will enhance safety, accessibility and the overall matchday experience, while protecting Páirc Tailteann’s status as the home of Meath GAA for generations to come. We look forward to seeing works commence and to sharing further milestones with the wider Meath community as the project progresses.”
