Due to unprecedented demand, Olympic Handball Ireland’s 50th Anniversary Celebration will now take place in October 2026.

Since our founding in 1976, we’ve seen handball grow from grassroots passion to a nationwide sport with a vibrant, diverse and international community — and we’re looking forward to marking this milestone together in a way that truly reflects the journey.

The 50-Year Celebration will take place in the evening in Dublin city centre.

The evening will include:

  • A look back at the human stories that shaped handball in Ireland

  • Inspiring guest speakers and expert panel discussions

  • A presentation of Olympic Handball Ireland’s strategic roadmap

  • Community Q&A, networking and informal social time

🗓️ Please note the new October 2026 timeline — RSVP and ticket information will be released soon.
