Traveling to 3Arena couldn't be easier. It is situated in the heart of Dublin's docklands which is very well served by public transport including bus, rail and Dart services.
Irish Rail provides a great link to the city from all over the country, bringing you to Connolly or Heuston Station from where you can hop on the Luas, straight to 3Arena.
You can travel to the doorstep of the venue via the Luas Red line. There are extra trams on show nights to cater for the large numbers travelling to and from 3Arena. A full schedule and live information is available on www.luas.ie.
Dublin Bus offers a high frequency and accessible service from all over Dublin to within a 20-minute walk of 3Arena.
The 151 route operates every 10 minutes during rush hour and will leave you on Castleforbes Road, the closest stop to the Venue, just a two minute walk away.
The last bus departs Castleforbes Road at 11.15pm Monday to Saturday.
There is limited car parking available in The Point Village car park but this carpark is not operated by 3Arena.
With large numbers gathering on show nights traffic congestion can delay your arrival and departure so it's encouraged to use public transport where possible.

Rory Gallagher instruments brought back to life at festival
Instruments belonging to the world-famous blues guitarist Rory Gallagher have been brought back to life in his birthplace of Ballyshannon, Co Donegal. Musicians have been given the opportunity to play guitars belonging to the guitarist who sold 30 million albums as part of the annual international Rory Gallagher Festival. Chairperson of the Rory Gallagher International Tribute Festival, Barry O'Neill, told RTÉ News that collectors in Ballyshannon were able to secure several guitars, harmonicas, a mandola and other items during an auction in London last October. The instruments, which will go on display as part of a permanent exhibition later this year, include a mandola made by Chris Eccleshall, who also made instruments for David Bowie, Peter Townshed and Eric Clapton. Barry O'Neill said they are "delighted it is going to rest in Ballyshannon" as it is an important part of musical heritage as Rory Gallagher only had one mandola. The collection also includes a supro dual-tone electric guitar, gifted to Rory Gallagher in 1985 by Canadian slide guitarist Paul Fenton. He played the instrument extensively on tours in north America and Canada in the 1980s. Ciarán Hodgins, a musician from Ballyshannon, said it was an honour and "a once in a life [opportunity] to play the instrument". "The guitar is road worn. Rory was a hard player but as soon as it's connected to an amplifier - it's as good as new. "It's surreal and it's a real honour to play it and to keep Rory Gallagher's legacy alive in Ballyshannon," he said. Tickets for this weekend's festival have been sold in 22 countries. Rory Gallagher was born at the Rock Hospital in Ballyshannon in 1948. His family moved to Derry city before settling in Cork. He died in 1995. As a recording artist, he sold over 30 million albums during his career. He played and toured around the globe. Visitors from UK, France and Australia said they made the journey to Ballyshannon because of their love for Rory Gallagher's music as well as the camaraderie and friendship found at the festival. Julian Vignoles, author of Rory Gallagher: The Man Behind the Guitar said he has "only missed one year" of the festival which is like "a pilgrimage". "People like me come to express our belief in the power and the majesty of Rory Gallagher's music." Guitarist Johnny Gallagher said the Rory Gallagher Festival created a great interest in rhythm and blues and rock and roll music. "It's a fantastic positive. Some of the greatest bands and guitarists in the world are coming to the festival. "Down and dirty with the blues in Ballyshannon - sure you couldn't be at it in a better place," he said.

The royals visited The Great White North in order to open a session of parliament, which included an However, one royal expert said Harry would have been mistaken if he thought his recent "diary clash" stunt visit to China would She added that his appearance in China felt "random" and "surprising", adding to what "appears to be an erratic year" for Harry. Speaking on the Duke of Sussex's visit, Royal Correspondent Bronte Coy explained: "It is a little bit random, to be honest. "And again, because it popped up that exact same day as the royals arrived in Canada, it had a bit of an odd feel to it - more so than usual. "It's kind of the latest in what appears to be a bit of an erratic year for him - it was surprising." If Harry thought his China stunt would overshadow the King's Canada trip he was sorely mistaken, expert says PRINCE Harry was mistaken if he thought his recent stunt visit to China would overshadow the King's trip to Canada, a royal expert has said.

Linking this back to Meghan's own life and recent changes, Bronte added: "Meghan has had a very clear career strategy this year - we've seen it roll out - there is a plan in place. "With Harry, it feels so scattergun. It's largely been the court cases - when I think of what has happened this year in terms of what he's generated headlines for and the work he's been doing. "It's been the interview he did after losing that court case in the UK - and the interview and speaking about his father. "He pops up in China for this on the day that his father and stepmother arrive in Canada. "And it just, again, feeds that narrative that there doesn't seem to be a clear approach of what he's doing. "He seems lost."
