FAI
The FAI Cup Final is the showpiece of League of Ireland football, and it takes place at the Aviva Stadium every November. Two clubs who’ve fought their way through the rounds get to play in Ireland’s national stadium. The finalists aren’t decided yet, but Shamrock Rovers, Shelbourne, Derry City, Dundalk, and Bohemians will all fancy their chances.
What to Expect
A brilliant day out for any football fan. The FAI Cup Final has a unique atmosphere - passionate fans from two clubs filling the Aviva, songs echoing around Lansdowne Road, and the drama of a cup final. Great value for money compared to international football.
