Mary Kate Henry ‘24 completed her Co-Op with Croke Park Stadium in Dublin, Ireland, when she was a Hospitality Management student at the College. Upon graduation, she became a full-time employee at the Park, with the title of Event Coordinator!

A typical day in the life for Mary Kate in her role as Event Coordinator begins with a walk into the fourth largest stadium in Europe. She soaks up the scenes of the iconic location of her workplace and notes that she encounters something different every day: “We’ve had some exciting days, but my top favorite have to be the All Ireland Hurling & Football Finals, 5 Nights of Coldplay, and the Launch Party for our newly refurbished Cusack side of the Stadium.”

Through the Experiential Learning Opportunity Fund, Mary Kate notes how she had the pleasure of working in Croke Park in the Meeting & Events Department during her Co-Op: “The opportunity of working at the Stadium which hosts over 1.5 million visitors a year provided me with more connections in my field and advanced my learning experience. If you have a dream job in mind, go for it. Continue to always build your connections, because it’ll always help you get there.”
