Fans advised to get to Croke Park as early as possible

The highlight of the GAA calendar will see thousands of Mayo and Kerry fans flock to Croke Park for the much anticipated match today.

There will be a strong Garda presence across the city as more than 80,000 fans take over the capital.

Diversions will be in place in and around Drumcondra, and supporters are being reminded that any illegally parked cars will be clamped.

People are advised to get there as early as possible.

Public transport is an option for those who want to avoid the parking difficulties or drivers, there are two supervised car park facilities available from 11am near Croke Park.

They're at Clonliffe College and O'Connell school on Richmond Street North, which can be accessed from the North Circular Road.

However, no traffic will be permitted to leave the car park for approximately 45 minutes after the game to allow walking fans to leave the area safely.
