About the initiative

The GAA’s popular ‘Ireland Lights Up’ initiative returns in January 2023 in partnership with RTE’s Operation Transformation, Get Ireland Walking and the Irish Life “My Life” app.

‘Ireland Lights Up’ encourages GAA clubs across the 32 counties to turn on their floodlights and open their walking tracks so their community can come together to walk and talk in a safe environment during the dark winter evenings. As ever, Operation Transformation, which returns to our screens on January 4th will shine a light on this great initiative by showcasing each week on the show GAA clubs that are participating in ‘Ireland Lights Up’.

Participating clubs are asked to organise a community walk a minimum of one evening per week for seven weeks, starting from Wednesday, January 11th, and running to the conclusion of Operation Transformation on March 1st. Irish Life, proud sponsors of the GAA Healthy Club programme, are once again onboard to host another 'Healthy Clubs Steps Challenge' through their MyLife health app. An incredible 28,000 participants tracked their steps through the MyLife app in January 2022, with three clubs in each province winning prizes totalling €5,000. By registering for Ireland Lights Up you are automatically registered for the Steps Challenge (although you don't have to participate in the latter - that is at your discretion). The Steps Challenge will run for five weeks from January 11th.  To register your club for Ireland Lights Up and to get more information on the MyLife Healthy Club Steps Challenge please click here - Ireland Lights Up 2023
