One of the most unique sports scenes in San Francisco is on Treasure Island this Sunday

Most Sundays from April through August, there’s an active Irish sports community that plays hurling and Gaelic football at Páirc na nGael on Treasure Island.

This Sunday is the San Francisco Gaelic Athletic Association’s St. Patrick’s Cup Finals.

If you’ve never seen hurling before, it’s worth seeing in person at least once. The clubs that compete in the senior hurling final are considered some of the best in the world.

There will be food, drinks, a bar, youth matches, championship games, and a halftime ceremony that honors departing Irish Consul General Micheál Smith before he leaves to become Ireland’s Ambassador to Saudi Arabia.

Entry is $10 cash.
(We don’t have a card reader.)
