Oriel Park, Football stadium in Dundalk, Ireland.

Oriel Park is a football stadium in Dundalk featuring two covered stands and an all-weather synthetic pitch installed in 2017, with seating for between 4,500 and 9,000 spectators. The playing surface meets international standards suitable for major football competitions.

The stadium was founded in 1919 and set its highest attendance record in 1981 with 18,000 spectators during a European Cup Winners' Cup match against Tottenham Hotspur. This game remains a milestone in the venue's history.

The stadium's temporary name 'Casey's Field' from 2022 honors Des Casey, the Honorary President of Dundalk Football Club who had passed away. This naming reflects how deeply the club values the people who shaped its history.

The stadium is located near Dundalk-Clarke railway station and served by local bus routes, making it easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should arrive early to allow time for orientation and accessing the stands.

The synthetic pitch earned FIFA Quality Pro certification in 2017, qualifying it to host UEFA Champions League matches. This made the venue a recognized venue for top-tier international competitions.
