Take the train to Irelands upcoming European Championship qualifying games

Travel information for Republic of Ireland matches at the Aviva Stadium this year.

The Boys in Green are in Group B of the 2024 UEFA European Championship Qualifying campaign and have been drawn in a tough group alongside France, the Netherlands, Greece and Gilbraltar. Ireland will be hoping to build on recent campaigns and challenge for one of the two automatic qualifying spots for Germany.

With a young squad that have gained International experience over recent years Stephen Kenny will be hoping we can make the Aviva a fortress and make it difficult for visiting teams. Support the Boys in Green this year in the Aviva Stadium.
 

After a confidence building win against Latvia and a strong performance against France which unfortunately resulted in a narrow defeat, Ireland look ahead to the summer fixture away to Greece and then home to Gilbraltar followed by a busy period of games in the autumn.

With a settled squad now and some talented players coming through the youth ranks, Ireland will be looking to get some points on the board to give us a chance at the business part of the qualifying campaign. Evan Ferguson impressed during the March international break and he'll hope to finish the season strongly. Josh Cullen has had a solid year with Burnley and will look to impress next season in the Premier league while Nathan Collins and Gavin Bazunu will look to build on solid first seasons. Other players in the squad will be looking to move clubs during the summer while some younger players will be looking to gain some experience to help their international credentials over the remainder of the qualifying campaign.

Travel by rail to the Aviva and support the Boys in Green.
