Right so, if you're sound with a jersey on and know your Hill 16 from your Davin Stand, this is the stuff I'm either at every weekend or talking about down the pub while I'm pulling pints! From Croker to the Aviva to the local club pitch in Drumcondra, these are the spots and bits that keep me going GAA mad all year round. Deadly craic, the lot of it!

Match day staples — 8 items
Name	Type	Address	City	My take
1Croke Park	GAA Stadium	Jones's Road, Drumcondra	Dublin	Hill 16 on All-Ireland final day is pure electric, nothing beats it, class atmosphere every single time!!
2GAA Museum	Museum	St Joseph's Avenue, Croke Park, Dublin 3	Dublin	Did the Skyline tour with my family and nearly cried looking at the old Sam Maguire, deadly stuff for any GAA head
3Aviva Stadium	Stadium	Lansdowne Road, Dublin 4	Dublin	Not gonna lie I go mainly for the football internationals but the roar when Ireland score is something else
4Parnell Park	GAA Ground	Collins Avenue, Donnycarney, Dublin 5	Dublin	My local-ish Dublin GAA home ground, way more intimate than Croker, great for catching the county games up close
5The Palace Bar	Pub	21 Fleet Street, Dublin 2	Dublin	Proper old school pub, great for a pint before a match in town, gets some savage chat going on the big games
6Semple Stadium weekend trips	GAA Stadium	Slievenamon Road, Thurles, Co. Tipperary	Thurles	Bit of a trek from Dublin but worth it for a big hurling championship day, the home of hurling no less!
73Arena sports events	Arena	North Wall Quay, Dublin 1	Dublin	Caught a boxing undercard here once and the noise off that crowd was unreal, mad venue for any big fight night
8Na Fianna GAA Club	GAA Club	Mobhi Road, Glasnevin, Dublin 9	Dublin	Sound local club near Drumcondra, always a good junior match on if you fancy proper grassroots GAA without the queues
