Directions
The best way to get to Curraheen Park from Cork City Centre is by taking the N25 South Ring Road. Patrons should head west and go straight through the Sarsfield Road and Bandon Road Roundabouts following signs for Killarney. Keep an eye out for signs indicating Curraheen or Curraheen Park which should be signposted to a slip road on the left. Once you exit you will come to a roundabout, take 2nd exit across fly-over and Curraheen Park Greyhound Stadium is at the end of the road on the left hand side.
Shuttle Bus/ Taxis/ Public Transport
Shuttle Bus
Curraheen Park operates a shuttle bus from the stadium to Cork City Centre on racenights. This service comes into operation as soon as racing has finished and is available approximately every 20 minutes thereafter for a fee of only €2. The drop-off point is near the Courthouse on Washington St, which is the heart of Cork's buzzing nightlife. The final service leaves Curraheen Park at 12.15 a.m.
Taxis
Public Transport to the Venue
The no. 8 Bus Éireann service stops approximately 5 minutes (walk) from Curraheen Park. These buses leave Cork City from just outside Merchants' Quay Shopping Centre on Patrick Street. Curraheen Park patrons should get off at the last stop which is situated just before a T-junction near "Curraheen Stores".
Patrons should continue walking in the same direction that the bus was heading until they come to a roundabout. Curraheen Park Greyhound Stadium should now be visible on the right.
