Access all areas as Páirc Uí Chaoimh gates open

The Cork County Board will open Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Wednesday night by giving access to the entire stadium for the first games to be played there.

Former Cork County Board chairman Bob Ryan said spectators going to the venue for the Premier intermediate hurling championship game between Blarney and Valley Rovers this week will be able to access the whole stadium rather than just one section of the ground.

He explained: “Páirc Uí Chaoimh has been shut for a couple of years while the redevelopment has been going on and people are obviously keen to see the work that’s been done, so they’ll be able to wander around the stadium.”
