At the moment, the Cork County GAA board are hoping to buy the immediate area beside the stadium which belongs to the Munster Agricultural Society. When purchase is complete, the Cork County Board hope to begin restorations to the stadium to bring capacity to around 55,000. A second tier is to be added to the existing covered stand, while the rest of the stadium (both open terraces and the open stand) will also be roofed. The addition of floodlighting as in the case of Pairc Ui Rinn is also likely.
