Ticket prices for the NFL game at Croke Park are outrageous

Outrageous!

If you are lucky enough to be selected for the opportunity to purchase a ticket for the Pittsburgh Steelers vs the Minnesota Vikings at Croke Park on September 28, you will be paying a pretty penny.

The two sides meet in week four of the upcoming NFL season, in what is the first regular-season game to be held in Dublin (the Steelers played the Chicago Bears in a pre-season game at Croke Park in 1997).

At the events launch in Dublin Castle, Vikings owner and president Mark Wilf said: “Playing in Ireland’s first-ever NFL game is an opportunity to introduce new fans to the Minnesota Vikings and help the league continue to make the game of football more accessible globally.

“To do so against a storied franchise like the Pittsburgh Steelers adds a unique challenge that makes this even more special.

“We are honoured to be selected for this historic game and will be anxious to see what promises to be an electric game-day environment in Croke Park.”

Minister for Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport Patrick O’Donovan added: “This event provides for a huge boost to tourism and hospitality in Ireland and indeed creates a great atmosphere in Dublin for visitors and locals alike.

“We look forward to welcoming the teams and supporters to Croke Park and to Dublin and beyond, as they take the opportunity to explore the many attractions that Ireland has to offer.”
