Lights, Camera… Goal? Behind the Scenes Video Shows GAA Players Turned Actors at Ireland West Airport Knock

You might remember last month we brought you a video, starring some of GAA’s finest men starring in a promotional piece at Irelands fastest growing airport, Ireland West Airport Knock in County Mayo. Well today, we’ve got another video - showing exclusive behind the scenes footage of the making of the video, “It’s about community”.

The video, which was shot on location at the airport last month sees leading men from Mayo, Donegal, Galway and Westmeath showing their support for their local airport in a unique way, by staging their own game of football at various locations around the airport.

The five players, who represent counties from the region, are Alan Dillon from Mayo, Michael Meehan from Galway, Karl Lacey & Michael Murphy from Donegal and Dessie Dolan from Westmeath. The players are face of an extensive new marketing campaign titled ‘Supporting Your Community’, which is currently featuring on various media channels throughout the summer season, showcasing the important role Ireland West Airport Knock plays for the regions in which it serves.

Whilst the video looked impressive, we’ve had a sneak preview of the ‘behind the scenes footage’ and its hilarious. Lets just say it wasn’t all plain sailing for the boys in remembering their lines – for some of them anyway.
