Two-thirds of public believe bringing sporting showpieces like Ryder Cup and Euro 2028 'value for money'

But public is sensitive of overpricing

Adare Manor in Limerick is due to host the Ryder Cup next year. 

Nearly two-thirds of Irish people support Government investments to bring high-profile sporting events such as the Ryder Cup and UEFA Euro 2028 to Ireland with over half saying they represent good value for money.

In the last year, Ireland has hosted prominent international sporting events including an NFL regular season fixture between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings in Croke Park, and the Aer Lingus College Football Classic in the Aviva Stadium.
