As the dust settles on a momentous night for the club, we want to say a massive thank you to everyone who played their part in this historic occasion.
To the additional gardaí and stewards, who ensured our record crowd arrived and departed safely.
To our volunteers and matchday staff, while they familiarised themselves in new surroundings.
To those who worked around the clock these past few weeks, ensuring the stadium was looking world-class for its debut.
To those no longer with us, whose vision over the last 15 years helped make this stadium a reality.
And finally, to you. The 12,481 supporters who created an atmosphere we’ll never forget, and our fans watching from across the globe.
Yesterday was just the start of a new chapter. We can't wait to see what the future holds for our new Home.

@halligansinead@connachtrugby Fair play Sinead...... But it should be a 2 way street.
Got to look after the fans that drop everything and spend their hard earned money on a lot of trips....
Tough flight back home tonight, ala Newcastle 🫣🫣🫣
@connachtrugby I normally don't do this, but please refund match tickets for the traveling support for that Shambolic performance..... You are way better than that.....
