Going to Portugal for the Gibralter match with the family and bringing the daughter to her first game. I'm looking forward to it, but she'll be 1 year a 4 months in October so might be at an awkward age.
For those who have brought young kids before have ye regretted it? Or keep family and away days separate? At least the Algave will just be like a sun holiday, whereas a city match might be different again.
The other half has been to a few aways before in Stockholm and last time playing Gib in Faro, but they were a bit of duds cos Stockholm was too spread out, and not much craic post match in Faro. Vienna was the best away trip for her, but there was a karaoke involved.

Only you can answer that question.
My kids when they were very young wouldn't have liked it so I never brought them, I brought my 10 year old to Denmark a few years ago and even then he was bored up until he met someone his own age and then he had a great time. |

I’ve a couple of young lads and my theory is that I won’t be taking to live games until they are happy enough to sit through most of an Ireland match on tv.

Bring them to a home game first IMO. I brought my 5yo to the FAI cup final last year, lots of food/snacks involved to get them through 2 hrs

Bringing our little one to Greece in June, she'll be two in July.
To be honest it's a chance to get to the game during a family holiday in a place that has enough to keep us busy for the length of time we are there. As Kev says the match for us still be a few drinks the day before and going to the match itself. Will see how it goes, will do the same for Gibraltar if it works well. |

Clearly be a different atmosphere compared with going to Amsterdam with your mates.

Gibraltar will be like going to an Arsenal game. You'll be fine.
