Shelbourne Fans Hold the Power to Decide €50,000 Upgrades for Iconic Tolka Park Stadium
The Shelbourne fans are set to play a significant role in determining how €50,000 will be allocated for upgrades to the iconic Tolka Park stadium. This initiative is part of a campaign introduced by their sponsors, Chadwicks, as they look ahead to the 2026 season.
Shelbourne Fans Vote on Stadium Upgrades
The Chadwicks Fans’ Choice campaign empowers supporters of the League of Ireland club to choose specific improvements for their home ground. The fans previously campaigned vigorously to keep the team at its Drumcondra location rather than moving to a shared facility with rivals Bohemians at the redeveloped Dalymount Park.
Proposed Upgrades for Tolka Park
This year, Chadwicks, who have renewed their partnership with Shelbourne FC for an additional two years, is looking for suggestions from fans. They previously renovated the home dressing room and are eager to further enhance the stadium experience.
- Family Zone: Development of a new family-friendly area with refreshments in the upcoming family stand.
- Tolka Park Turnstiles and Entrances: Improvements to the turnstile areas and supporter entrances to enhance the arrival experience.
Voting Details
Voting is open from November 4 until November 16. Fans can cast their votes on which upgrades they wish to see implemented at Tolka Park.
Statements from Leaders
Ken Broughman, Managing Director of Chadwicks, expressed excitement about extending their partnership with Shelbourne FC. He stated, “We’re putting the power in the hands of the Shels fans. By voting in the Fan’s Choice poll, supporters can choose the upgrades we make to the fan experience at Tolka Park.”
Tomás Quinn, CEO of Shelbourne FC, echoed Broughman’s sentiments, highlighting the value of having Chadwicks as partners. He noted the importance of taking fan feedback into account for future improvements at their beloved stadium.
As the initiative unfolds, all eyes will be on the votes and the exciting developments that will enhance the experience for Shelbourne supporters at Tolka Park.
