As one of the lead sponsors of Irish Architecture Foundation, Open House Dublin 2026, Walls were delighted to welcome members of the public to The National Velodrome and Badminton Centre project in partnership with Sport Ireland.
We hosted three group sessions at the Sport Ireland Campus in Blanchardstown on the day, and visitors enjoyed refreshments and an introductory presentation by Gary Maher, Project Manager at Walls, followed by a guided site walk. Also available to answer questions and provide details of this major development were Dr. Una May, CEO of Sport Ireland, and Rebecca Ryan, Project Director at Scott Tallon Walker Architects.
Our guests took the opportunity to look the behind the scenes, and gain valuable insights into the construction process and the architects’ vision. They also learned how the NVBC will give athletes with Cycling Ireland and Badminton Ireland the environment they need to train, compete and excel internationally, and open new pathways into sport for people of all ages and abilities.
