Hospitality Options at Aviva Stadium
The Aviva Stadium presents a selection of premium hospitality experiences, each designed to suit different styles of matchday entertainment while maintaining exceptional service throughout. The Vavasour East and West Rooms offer an intimate, glass-fronted setting on Level 2, overlooking Lansdowne Road. With a capacity of 100 guests, these suites provide a refined atmosphere, combining private dining tables with excellent Category 1 seating in either the East Lower or West Upper Stand. This option is ideal for friends, family and corporate groups.
For a top-tier experience, the Havelock Restaurant sits on the Executive Level and delivers panoramic views of the pitch and stadium. Located behind the south goal, it includes premium padded seating directly outside the suite. Its elevated position, larger table formats, and vibrant yet polished atmosphere make it one of the most sought-after hospitality options. Meanwhile, the Marian College Marquee offers a spacious and energetic setting just a short walk from the stadium. Hosting up to 900 guests, this glass-fronted marquee provides a lively pre- and post-match experience alongside premium dining and seamless access to top-category seating.
With limited availability across all suites, these premium hospitality options sell out quickly, particularly for high-profile fixtures such as Ireland v England.
