Sisk delivers stadium upgrade under Meath contract

SISK has secured a €21m contract to redevelop the main stand at Páirc Tailteann, the county GAA grounds in Navan, marking a significant delivery milestone in Meath’s long-running stadium improvement programme.

The Irish construction firm signed the contract earlier this month, with works already progressing on site. The project focuses on the redevelopment of the existing stand and forms a central part of wider efforts to modernise the stadium’s facilities while preserving its role as the home of Meath GAA.

Shane Glynn, regional director at 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.”

Glynn added that the firm is engaging closely with regional partners as delivery begins. “We look forward to beginning works on site with our local supply chain partners and delivering the stand to highest possible standards.”

For Meath GAA, the contract signing represents a transition from planning to construction after years of preparatory work.

Jason Plunkett, Meath GAA County chairperson, described the moment as a turning point for the organisation and its supporters.

“Today is a landmark day for Meath GAA and for everyone who has Páirc Tailteann in their hearts,” he said.

“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,” Plunkett explained.
