The University of Galway Connacht GAA Air Dome was an air-supported Gaelic games venue located at the Connacht GAA Centre of Excellence in Bekan, County Mayo, Ireland. It was the second largest facility of its type in the world when it was built.[2]
The Air Dome hosted games at a variety of levels, including senior intercounty matches. Most notably, it was the primary venue for the FBD Insurance League between 2022 and 2024, until the competition was put on hiatus.[3][4]
It was also capable of holding conferences and concerts.[5]
