Athletics Ireland has announced the return of ‘Track and Field Live’, the fast-paced athletics meetings that blend juvenile, recreational, and high performance focused events into an exciting evening of indoor track and field action.

The ‘Track and Field Live’ Indoor Tour will see EIGHT events take place across three venues, including:

• Sport Ireland National Indoor Arena
• TUS International Indoor Arena Athlone
• Nenagh Olympic Indoor Track

‘Track and Field Live’ has grown exponentially over the last number of years and the 2023/24 edition promises to sell out once again. Over the past 6 seasons over 6000 participants have enjoyed running, jumping, and throwing at Ireland’s top-class indoor facilities.

Highlights from previous events included a European U20 indoor mile record for Nicolas Griggs, a new national U20 pole vault record for Conor Callinan, as well as a World Record (W55- 1500m) for Anne Gilsenan over 1500m.

The first ‘Track and Field Live’ meet of the 2023/24 season will take place on Wednesday 29th of November at the Sport Ireland Arena.

Meet Director, Athletics Ireland David Matthews said, “The 7th season of Track & Field Live promises to be our biggest to date and we look forward to getting up and running with the first event of the Indoor Tour at the Sport Ireland National Indoor Arena on Nov 29th.

“This indoor season we’ve EIGHT meets across three indoor venues. I’m delighted to announce we will be adding a sustainable participation medal for ALL juvenile athletes who take part in the events. We’ve designed 3 bespoke medals to represent the 3 world class venues across the country. Once again admission is free to the venues and we’ll once again be live streaming for anyone who can’t make it along in person.”
