Finn Park, Football stadium in Ballybofey, Ireland
Finn Park is a football stadium in Ballybofey, County Donegal, home to Finn Harps. Its covered main stand, the Shed, runs almost the length of the pitch along Navenny Street and holds 350 seats near the halfway line, with terracing elsewhere. The uncovered Town End terrace stands behind the northern goal, and the Gantry Side faces the Shed.
The first recorded match at the ground took place in May 1954, marking the start of its life as a sports venue. Finn Harps FC, which joined the League of Ireland in 1969, has used it as their home ever since.
The stadium serves as a gathering place for football supporters throughout the region and shapes the sporting life of County Donegal. Match days bring people from surrounding communities together and create a focal point for local identity.
Only three sides are officially open: the covered Shed on Navenny Street, the Town End terrace on Chestnut Road and the Gantry Side, where away fans enter from Chestnut Road. The River End embankment behind the southern goal is closed and used for ambulance parking. The pitch is grass, about 100 by 73 metres.
The River End embankment takes its name from the River Finn running directly behind it. It is officially closed and normally used for ambulance parking, while the scoreboard stands in the corner between it and the Shed.
