Zach Bryan Phoenix Park bag rules confirmed as urgent warning issued

There's just two more sleeps to go until Zach Bryan kicks off a rare three-night residency at Dublin's Phoenix Park. With around 180,000 fans expected across Friday 20, Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 June, this weekend promises to be one of the summer's biggest music events.
The American country singer-songwriter, known for his raw lyrics and electrifying live performances, rose from posting homemade tracks on YouTube to topping the charts with hits like I Remember Everything, Pink Skies and Something in the Orange.
These Phoenix Park shows mark the 29-year-old's largest Irish gigs yet - a huge leap from playing smaller venues like The Helix just three years ago.
But before fans grab their cowboy boots and head for the gates, they need to think carefully about what they bring - especially when it comes to bags. Attendees must double-check their bags meet the strict size requirements, while still holding all the essentials for the night.
Strict bag rules have been confirmed and fans are strongly advised to travel light and pack only what's necessary to avoid delays at entry. In a recent update, Aiken Promotions urged ticketholders: "Please do not bring a bag unless it is absolutely necessary."
If you do need to bring a bag, it must be no larger than A4 size. Larger bags won't be allowed inside, and you won't be allowed to leave bags unattended anywhere in or around the venue, so it's important to follow these rules closely.
Those arriving without bags will be fast-tracked through security, while anyone carrying an A4-sized bag will face a search, which could lead to longer queues.
To keep things moving smoothly, concertgoers are advised to travel light and only bring the essentials: a phone or device with your ticket pre-downloaded, valid ID, sunscreen and clothing suitable for the weather.
Meanwhile, fans should also be aware that there is an extensive list of banned items that won't be permitted inside Phoenix Park. This ranges from the likes of skateboards and flagpoles, to laptops and even ham sandwiches. You can read the full list here, so double check to avoid disappointment.

Oasis gigs underpin more than 9% rise in card spending

Consumer spending surged in Ireland last weekend as the Manchester-born band Oasis played to two sold-out concerts in Dublin's Croke Park. New data from digital bank Revolut shows Oasis fans continued to spend despite soaring hotel prices and efforts by city centre businesses to cash in on the occasion, with card spending soaring by more than 9% as a result of the two Dublin gigs. Marking the first time in over 16 years since the band played in Ireland, the Oasis gig also underpinned a more than 8% rise in the volume of card transactions, with spending of this magnitude not being witnessed since Taylor Swift performed at the Aviva Stadium in June 2024. In addition, over 16% more was spent in Dublin bars, cafes, restaurants, and nightclubs over the weekend compared to the previous one. Anticipation had been building across the capital throughout August, Revolut said, with a pop-up store on St Stephen's Green setting the tone since opening in early August, as fans scrambled for sought-after Oasis merch. Over the last two weekends, merchandise stores in Dublin recorded hundreds of thousands of euros in revenue, which is likely due to the store's lengthy queues. Owing to popular demand, the pop-up store has since announced extended dates. While spending on public transportation was down 9% across the rest of Ireland, it rose dramatically by over 120% in Dublin as Irish Oasis fans descended upon the capital for the gigs. Taxi drivers also benefited from the concerts, with a 15% uplift in revenues last weekend. Dublin sales of store-bought beer, wine, and liquor also rose by over a third compared to the previous weekend. Furthermore, Dublin restaurants, pubs, and licensed stores also saw a boost in sales across the weekend, with Revolut's business customers recording an increase in revenues. Of these, the 'food, beverages or tobacco' industries experienced a notable 2% uplift when compared with the previous weekend. 'Consumer spending of this level in just one weekend sends a very strong signal about the confidence of our more than 3m customers in Ireland," said General Manager at Revolut Bank UAB - Ireland Branch, Malcolm Craig. "Last weekend highlights the value of attracting genuine A-listers to Ireland and that Revolut remains Irish people's preferred way to spend.'
