It’s been confirmed that Sligo Rovers has been successful in securing 6 million euro worth of funding under the Ireland Immigrant Investor Programme.

 

The initiative was introduced by the Irish Government in 2012 to encourage inward investment for the creation of business and employment opportunities.

 

Under the scheme investors and business professionals from outside the European Economic Area can avail of opportunities of investing and locating their business interests in Ireland and can subsequently acquire secure residency status in Ireland.

 

Under the scheme, Sligo Rovers submitted a business plan for €6 million worth of development works at Sligo Showgrounds back in 2023.

 

These works form part of the new stadium planned for the Showgrounds which will cost €23.4 million and the donation is seen as a vital part of the overall funding package for the stadium.

 

Junior Minister and Sligo TD Frank Feighan says the funding  will be used to constructing a stadium that will be one of the North West’s iconic sporting arenas.
