Gas Networks Ireland at the 2025 National Ploughing Championships

Come visit us at this year's Ploughing Championships!

Gas Networks Ireland will be attending this year's National Ploughing Championships. 

You will find us at Stand 186, Row 8, Block 3.

Gas Networks Ireland is returning to the National Ploughing Championships after more than a decade, bringing a renewed focus on safety, innovation, and the future of energy.

What to expect

Tattoo Parlour

At the heart of the stand is the “Dial Before You Dig” Tattoo Parlour, where visitors can choose from a range of striking temporary tattoos - one of which was designed by Heartbreak Social Club artist Ryan Kelly.  

We’ve also teamed up with social media personality James Doyle, who is supporting the campaign as a safety ambassador. James will join us on September 16^th to encourage visitors to get their complimentary temporary tattoo that reminds you to ‘Dial Before You Dig’. 

“The tattoo is temporary, but the message is permanent.”

Moving Ireland's Energy Showcase

We will have a dedicated zone showing how renewable biomethane gas will help Ireland meet climate targets, while creating new revenue streams for farmers. A live 3D printer will build a model anaerobic digestion plant across the three days.

Talks Stage

Daily sessions featuring safety demonstrations, farming innovators and renewable energy experts, including Gas Networks Ireland Biomethane Programme Manager Padraig Fleming.

Family Zone

Our Family Zone includes a sandpit and child-friendly tattoo designs to keep younger visitors entertained, while reinforcing the safety message.

Competitions and Prizes

Visitors can take part in a treasure-hunt quiz across the stand and be in with a chance to win prizes.
