Lifford Greyhound Stadium
The Oaks race will return to the Lifford Greyhound Stadium for the first time since 2009.
BoyleSports have been announced as the sponsor of the event, with the winner to take a cool €10,000 top prize.
The competition gets underway on Saturday, October 18, with the prestigious final set for Saturday, November 1.
This year’s event marks a historic milestone as it is the first Oaks to take place at the track since 2009 and represents the biggest competition to take place at Lifford Greyhound Stadium since it reopened in 2023.
Spencer Saberton, Racing Manager at Lifford Stadium, said: "The return of the Oaks is a huge boost for the track and for everyone who has supported racing here since our reopening.
