This Saturday, the Home of Irish Football opens its gates for a night that promises laughter, memories, and a touch of magic under the lights.
As part of this year’s Phizzfest, The Rodfather – featuring Bohs’ 2001 league and cup double-winning manager Roddy Collins with bestselling author Paul Howard, creator of Ross O’Carroll-Kelly – arrives at Dalymount Park on Saturday, 9th May.
Set against the backdrop of a stadium steeped in history and character, the event will take place on a festival stage in front of the Jodi Stand. With Dalymount about to be redeveloped, the evening offers something rare: a chance to gather in the old stadium, soak up the atmosphere, and create one more shared memory before a new chapter begins in the Home of Irish Football.
The Rodfather promises an entertaining and unfiltered look at football, Bohs, life, and everything in between. An open-air evening in our beloved Dalymount, where generations have stood, cheered, debated, and dreamed. For many, Dalymount Park is more than just a stadium – it’s a place tied to identity, community, and countless unforgettable moments.
With the redevelopment due to start at the end of the season, whether you’ve been coming through the turnstiles for years or you’re simply looking for a unique night out full of humour and heart, come for the stories, stay for the atmosphere.
Tickets are expected to be in high demand and are available now via phizzfest.ie and https://ie.powertik.com/en/events/the-rodfather-roddy-collins-in-conversation-with-paul-howard
