GAA Museum Events - Legends Tours with Larry Tompkins and Jimmy Magee

GAA Museum Events – Legends Tours with Larry Tompkins and Jimmy Magee

Following on from a very successful Legends Tour of Croke Park with Babs Keating on Friday 8th May, the GAA Museum still has events lined up this May. Events include behind-the-scene tours of Croke Park with footballer Larry Tompkins and commentator Jimmy Magee as well as a unique opportunity to handle items of the museum’s collection in a free workshop organized in association with the Bealtaine Festival. 

The Legends Tour Series, which was inaugurated in the summer of 2008 by Dublin legend Jimmy Keveaney, was a sellout success with GAA fans relishing the opportunity to experience Croke Park behind the scenes. The popular tours provide an opportunity to hear memories and anecdotes from the men and women who have experienced firsthand what it was like to play, manage and commentate in Croke Park on the biggest of match days.

 

If you require any further information or wish to make a booking, please do not hesitate to contact me.
