Green Glens Arena
The Green Glens Arena is a multi-purpose arena in the Irish city of Millstreet .
The 80 × 40 meter arena offers 8,000 seats. In addition to events related to equestrian sports ( show jumping , horse auctions), trade fairs (agriculture, vintage cars) and, less often, boxing matches or concerts take place. In show jumping, World Cup competitions were held here from 1992 to 2000. The 1993 Eurovision Song Contest was held in the Green Glens Arena.
Next to the hall is a 0.2 km² equestrian facility. This is also used regularly for horse shows, for example several times for the European championships for pony riders, children, juniors and young riders in show jumping. International 3 * - eventing are also held here.
Noel C. Duggan had the hall and riding facility built, and the complex continues to be run by the local Duggan family.
