Tallaght Stadium Awarded Highly Commended at Irish Concrete Society Awards

DBFL are thrilled to share that the Tallaght Stadium North Stand & Refurbishment project has been awarded Highly Commended in the Building Category at the Irish Concrete Society’s 42nd Annual Awards.
The jury praised the project, stating: “The fourth stand at Tallaght Stadium sets a benchmark for contemporary stadium architecture in an urban environment. It seamlessly integrates with its surroundings, enhances the match-day experience, and fosters community engagement. A key architectural feature is the extensive use of precast concrete, which contributes to a striking northern elevation while reinforcing structural clarity and sustainability. At street level, integrated retail spaces activate the area beyond match days, transforming the stadium into a vibrant social hub.”

This recognition reflects the innovative design, technical excellence and extraordinary collaboration that went into bringing this project to life. The North Stand not only enhances the capacity and atmosphere of the stadium, but also showcases how concrete can be both functional and visually striking in public infrastructure.

Congratulations to the entire project team on this well-deserved recognition! South Dublin County Council, box architecture, JV Tierney & Co. | Consulting Engineers Ireland, COONEY architects, ABM Contractors, Macrete Ireland and Roadstone
