The Pittsburgh Steelers have announced the team’s second-ever Dublin Fáilte Steelers Watch Party, presented by Ticketmaster.
The event will take place in Croke Park on Sunday, September 29th, for their game against the Indianapolis Colts. The venue will open from 4 PM with Kick-off at 6PM.
Last year’s party sold out in less than 24 hours, and space is limited, so fans are advised to act quickly to secure their spot.
The game will be hosted in the Hogan Stand Suite. It will include coverage on multiple screens, analysis, entertainment, and hospitality in a special atmosphere complete with Steelers game day traditions.
Steelers alumni will be in attendance, and a special pop-up shop will open on the night so fans can purchase officially licensed team merchandise.
Tickets will go on sale via Ticketmaster on Wednesday, August 28th at 3 PM.
“We’re looking forward to hosting our second Watch Party in Ireland,” said Dan Rooney, Steelers Director of Business Development & Strategy.
“Steelers Watch Parties give fans a chance to cheer on the team together and sample some of the game-day rituals that have become traditions in Pittsburgh.”
“Our inaugural event in 2023 was very well received, and we’re looking forward to welcoming Steelers fans from across the island for another great event at Croke Park.”
“We are delighted to welcome back the Pittsburgh Steelers and their team to Croke Park,” added Croke Park Stadium Director Peter McKenna.
“Last year’s event was a huge success, and we are confident that this year’s event will be another occasion to remember.”
The fan Watch Party is the Steelers’ latest activity in the Irish market. The team was granted the rights to expand its brand and activities in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland as part of the NFL’s ‘Global Markets Program’.
They have hosted several fan and football educational events, including a kicking clinic in April of this year and two American Football Youth Camps in Cork and Belfast this June. The team also announced its fourth-round pick in this year’s NFL draft live from Co Kerry and partnered with Sport for Business for a Business Breakfast back in April and with Virgin Media Television to air three of the team’s pre-season games live and free-to-air for Irish fans for the first time.
Sport for Business, in partnership with Allianz, will hold the 2024 Sport for Business Sport for Social Good Conference on Thursday, October 24th. This is one of ten events currently planned for the remainder of 2024.
