Chicago Gaelic Park

In 1983 a group of Irish lads joined together to purchase land where they could play their native sports. Volunteer laborers worked together to set the foundation of Chicago Gaelic Park. Virtually all of the labor used to build and maintain Gaelic Park was donated by Irish tradespeople. The materials were donated or sold at cost by local suppliers. Four decades later Chicago Gaelic Park is still a place where GAA games are played. In fact, it’s the largest Irish cultural center in North America. Today Chicago Gaelic Park is now a sprawling complex with 53 acres of property, sports pitches, locker rooms, 3 banquet halls, meeting rooms, and The Carraig, a traditional Irish pub. Since our doors opened in 1985, we have strived to be a place where Irish Immigrants and Irish Americans feel at home. Although we are rooted in Irish culture, we hope to be a place where all people feel welcome. Our community events are open to the public as we believe our cultures are meant to be shared.
