Dublin's Dalymount Park stadium to be turned into 6,000 all-seater stadium

The long-awaited redevelopment of the historic Dalymount Park stadium – home to Irish Premier Division football Club Bohemians – has been given the go-ahead by Dublin City Council. Following a meeting earlier this month, the council announced the stadium will become an all-seater, Uefa Category 3 stadium with a capacity of around 6,000.
The capacity is lower than the initial development proposals, which would have seen a capacity of between 8,000 and 10,000 fans.
Bohemians sold Daly Park to Dublin City Council in 2015 as part of plans to redevelop the ageing ground, which dates back to 1901.
The venue – which held its first international game in 1904 – has, in recent years, fallen out of use as a major venue due to lack of improvements since the replacement of the old main stand in 1999.
As part of the redevelopment, Bohemians will ground share the venue with Irish First Division club Shelbourne once the redevelopment is complete.
Once open, the stadium will house a library, flexible community space and a number of meeting rooms.
