National Stadium, Boxing stadium in Dublin, Ireland
The National Stadium is a boxing venue in Dublin built with a limestone facade and two-story design. The building contains spaces for different event types, each with its own seating capacity depending on how the venue is arranged.
The building was founded in 1939 as a dedicated amateur boxing facility for the city. A major renovation project took place decades later to update and improve the structure.
The venue shifted beyond boxing to host major musical performances by international artists. This role as a performance space reflects how the building has become part of Dublin's wider entertainment culture.
The venue is easily accessible on foot from Dublin's city center and welcomes visitors for various events. Before visiting, check what type of event is happening since the interior layout changes depending on whether it is set up for boxing or other activities.
The building stands as the only purpose-built amateur boxing arena of its kind worldwide. This makes it a special place for the sport, since it was designed from the start specifically for boxing.
