Getting there

By Tram (Luas)

The Luas Red Line is the best way to reach the venue. The tram drops you right at the front door at 'The Point' stop. Services run frequently on event nights.

By Bus

The 151 Dublin Bus route operates to the Docklands, stopping on Castleforbes Road, a 2 minute walk from the arena. Check last bus times for your return journey.

Before the show, after the encore

1
Docklands Dining

The surrounding Dublin Docklands area has a growing number of modern bars and restaurants. It is wise to book a table in advance on event nights.

2
Drinks at The Gibson

The Gibson Hotel is located right next to the arena and its stylish bar is a very popular meeting point for a sophisticated pre-show drink.

3
City Centre Pubs

For a more traditional experience, have a few drinks in the city centre around Temple Bar or O'Connell Street before hopping on the Luas to the venue.

4
Post-Show Hotel Bar

The bar at The Gibson Hotel is the most convenient place for a post-show drink, allowing the crowds on the Luas to die down.

5
Head Back to the City

Jump on the Luas back towards the city centre where countless pubs and late bars, especially around the Temple Bar area, will be open.
