St. Tiernach's Park is a Gaelic Athletic Association stadium in Clones, Ireland.

It is the home of the Monaghan Gaelic football team. The Ulster Final was hosted here from 1970 until 2004: prior to this, Casement Park was the venue. From 2004 to 2006, the Ulster Final had been played in Croke Park, because of its higher capacity. However, due to the Leinster Senior Football Championship Final being scheduled for the same date the ground held the Ulster Final in 2007 with Tyrone narrowly defeating Monaghan by a scoreline of 1–15 to 1–13. The ground has a capacity of about 36,000 and is the most modern stadium for Gaelic Games in Ulster. It has been suggested that Clones may get an investment of 30 million euro to develop St Tiernach's Park.[1]
