The new LED system, set to debut at the upcoming NFL International Series game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings this September, will replace the stadium’s original 2007 incandescent system with a custom-engineered solution offering superior energy efficiency, broadcast-quality lighting, and reduced maintenance.

"Croke Park is a place where the history speaks for itself," said Chris Limpach, Director of Europe, Middle East & Africa Business at Musco Lighting. "It’s hosted unforgettable events and is a source of pride for the entire nation. We’re honoured to help usher in a new era of performance and sustainability with our LED technology."

As the heart of Irish sporting and cultural life, Croke Park plays host to All-Ireland finals, concerts, and global events. This installation reflects a broader commitment to sustainability, innovation, and world-class fan experiences.

"Upgrading our floodlights to a state-of-the-art LED system is a major milestone in our drive for sustainability and innovation," said Peter McKenna, Stadium Director at Croke Park. "This system enhances playing conditions, improves energy efficiency, and ensures Croke Park continues to deliver world-class events while reducing our carbon footprint. We are excited to be working with Musco on this important project for the stadium."

The project is being delivered in partnership with McSherry Electrical, an Irish contractor with deep expertise in complex infrastructure and stadium installations.

"We’re thrilled to work alongside Musco on this landmark installation," said Neil McSherry, Managing Director of McSherry Electrical. "Croke Park holds a special place in Irish life, and we’re proud to play a role in its evolution through sustainable, future-focused solutions."
