Due to the variations in law from country to country the limit for a specific event held outside of the Republic of Ireland will be announced in advance of the game day itself. A table indicating the specifics will be made available and strictly adhered to in order to maintain safety and/or comply with local laws. It is your responsibility to ensure that your equipment meets the specific requirements on the game day. Please do not arrive to the event with a non-compliant device as you will not be permitted to use it and refusal may cause offense and you will be refused!
