Our Funeral Home in Arklow

A peaceful, welcoming space for families to gather

Our all-denominational funeral home at Fairgreen, Arklow provides a calm and welcoming setting where families can spend precious time together while their loved one lies in repose, where they can receive the support & condolences of the public, or join in a Service in Celebration of Life. Thoughtfully designed to be both homely and professional, Sweeney’s Funeral Home is specifically designed to facilitate both the public & private aspects of a funeral.

As a family-run funeral home, we understand the importance of creating a supportive environment where people feel at ease. Whether you choose a quiet, private farewell or a larger public gathering, we will help you make the arrangements that suit your family’s needs.

A Space For You

Our funeral home can be used for:

• Private reposing for close family only

• Public reposing where members of the community can pay their respects

• Civil or religious funeral services held directly on-site

• Committal Services where the Rite of Committal can take place culminating in curtain closure as a final farewell, negating the need for families to travel to Dublin for cremation service.

• Rosary, prayers or family-led farewells

• Viewing or spending time with the deceased before cremation or burial

Whether the funeral service is taking place here, at a local church, or elsewhere, we will guide you through the options and help you plan what feels right.

Webcam & Live Streaming

We also offer the option of private live streaming from our funeral home or from churches or venues that do not have a fixed webcam, for families who wish to include loved ones who are unable to attend in person. This secure service can be arranged for viewings, rosaries, or services as required.
