Good news for Mayo families as Teidi Tours return to the GAA Museum during midterm
Families can enjoy a cuddly kick-off to the midterm break with the Teidí Tours, which are back at the GAA Museum in Croke Park, Dublin, this February.
Young Mayo GAA fans will have a ball as they get the chance to make their very own sports bear followed by a guided tour of the iconic Croke Park stadium with their new furry friend.
The bear-making workshop and family-friendly tour is the perfect day out for families with young children, combining fun and learning about the history and culture of the GAA. Each child will enjoy selecting their bearskin, stuffing their bear, finding a bear heart, naming their new furry friend, and receiving a ‘bear-th’ cert.
The children will also get to dress their bear in its own GAA Museum training kit before exploring Croke Park stadium on a special tour, which includes a visit to the dressing rooms and the chance to walk pitch-side.
Teidí Tours at Croke Park Museum are specially designed for children ages three and over. Each child ticket includes a 16-inch bear to make and take home, plus a bear training kit. Child tickets are €30 while adult tickets are available for €10, and student/senior tickets are €8. Tours will run on Thursday, February 20, and Friday, February 21, at 10.30 a.m. and 2.30 p.m. Tickets are limited, so book online in advance to secure your spot.
In addition to the tour access to the GAA Museum is included, where visitors can explore the incredible new club wall, learn fun facts about the GAA and Croke Park, and test their hurling and football skills in the interactive games zone. It’s also a great chance to check out the brand-new gift shop under the Cusack Stand, which is now twice the size it was.
What was once the reception area has been transformed into a bright, modern shop with new ranges of county colours and the exclusive Croke Park clothing range, a selection of GAA books for adults and children, as well as high-quality gifts from local suppliers.
There will also be extra Stadium and Kellogg’s Skyline Tours running over the midterm break. There will be four Stadium Skyline Tours each day (11 a.m., 12 p.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.) and two Kellogg’s Skyline Tours (11.30 a.m. and 2.30 p.m.).
The GAA Museum and Croke Park Stadium Tour are fully accessible for people with disabilities, and there are on-site facilities including toilet and baby changing areas. For delicious snacks and meals, the Blackthorn Café is open daily serving a variety of options. Picnic table seating is available for those who want to enjoy a Teddy Bear’s picnic with their new furry friend!
