Built for Competition

From world championships and national competitions to multi-day tournaments, Gleneagle has the scale, flexibility and experience to host sporting and competitive events of all kinds.

Our event spaces can be transformed around the needs of each competition, whether that means a championship dance floor, rows of poker, pool or snooker tables, a boxing ring or an indoor sporting arena. Experienced event, technical and hospitality teams work alongside organisers to bring every element together.

And when competition finishes for the day, everything else is already here. Four-star accommodation, self-catering apartments, dining, leisure, entertainment and social spaces are all onsite, making life easier for organisers and creating a better experience for competitors, officials, families and supporters.

A Proven Championship Venue

Gleneagle has welcomed competitors from Ireland and around the world for major sporting and competitive events, from World Irish Dancing Championships and international poker festivals to European pool championships, professional and amateur snooker, darts, taekwondo, tug of war, table tennis, boxing and bowls.

That breadth of experience means we understand the demands of competitive events. From registration and scheduling to production, catering, accommodation and spectator requirements, our team can help organisers plan the event as a whole.

Space That Works Around Your Event

No two competitions work in quite the same way. Our flexible venues and extensive in-house AV, lighting and production capabilities allow spaces to be configured around different formats, capacities and technical requirements.

Multiple spaces can operate simultaneously, creating dedicated areas for competition, practice and warm-up, registration, hospitality, meetings, presentations and social events.

Everything in One Place

For multi-day competitions, keeping the event and the stay connected can make a real difference.

With four-star accommodation and self-catering apartments alongside event spaces, restaurants and bars, leisure facilities and entertainment, competitors and supporters can stay at the heart of the event from beginning to end.

And with Killarney National Park on our doorstep and Killarney town close by, there is plenty for accompanying families and supporters to experience beyond the competition.
