In October 1993, the first match under floodlights took place with a 2-1 win over Shamrock Rovers[1] The ground has a capacity of 3,500 with 1,500 seats.

During the middle of 2010, renovations took place to bring the venue up to licensing standards: changes include the addition of seats to the GAA side of the ground (to bring the seating capacity up to 1,500), new toilet facilities and a new covered section dedicated to wheelchair users.

[citation needed] The ground was also known briefly as O2 Park during 2002 and 2003, as part of a sponsorship deal with the telecommunications company O2.

The stadium used to hold 5,400,[2] though the safe capacity is now set at 2000 by the Louth County Fire Officer.

Proposals were made to sell the site and build a 10,000 all seater new stadium on the outskirts of the town.
