New video highlights all Dundalk Stadium has to offer

Cheltenham is in full flow at the moment and, as a result, horse racing has rarely been in as much focus.

It can be easy to forget we have a world class racing facility on our doorstep in Dundalk Stadium but not anymore.

The good folks at local digital marketing company The Digital Bakery have put together a corporate video package for Dundalk Stadium.

As well as showcasing the wonderful racing and facilities at the Racecourse Road venue, it also highlights the many sponsorship and corporate packages available and the benefits that other companies have seen from using the Stadium.

It’s definitely worth a look, if for no other reason to see a few well known local faces including Paddy Mac of The Long Riders and Dundalk FM.
