O'Moore Park


O'Moore Park is a GAA stadium in Port Laoise, County Laois, Ireland. It is the home of the Laois Gaelic football and hurling teams. Under a new sponsorship deal it is known as "MW Hire O'Moore Park".
Although it may have been in use as a GAA ground since 1888, and was acquired by Maryborough GAA Club in 1908, it was not purchased as the county grounds until 1917, becoming then one of the first grounds acquired by a county board.
The ground has a capacity of about 22,000, of which 6,500 is seated. Its pitch is one of Ireland's best under weather. It is the venue for many club and county matches, particularly since the installation of floodlights. It is frequently used as a neutral stadium for inter-county matches not involving Laois. It is located 0.5 km from Portlaoise town centre on the N80 road.
In the stand white seats against a background of blue seats are used to spell out "Laois Laois".
