Niall Horan is set to play gigs at the 3Arena in Dublin on the 10th, 12th and 13th of November amid major traffic disruption in the capital.
Gardaí are preparing for the largest security operation in the history of the State, as Dublin hosts the European Political Community meeting on Thursday, followed by an informal EU leaders’ summit on Friday.
A number of restrictions on traffic, public transport and pedestrian access are being introduced across the city, particularly around the Convention Centre and North Wall Quay, close to the 3Arena.
With doors due to open at 6:30pm, concertgoers are being urged to allow extra time for their journey and plan ahead for road closures and delays.
Here’s what you need to know before heading to the gigs this week:
Can I drive to the 3Arena?
The North Wall Quay will be closed to east and west traffic from Tuesday morning until Friday evening.
However cars can still access the venue via Seville Place/Sherriff Street Upper, East Wall Road and across Tom Clarke Toll Bridge at all times.
Can I walk there?
There will be no pedestrian access to the venue along the North Wall Quay.
Fans are being advised to use Amiens Street, Seville Place. Spencer Dock Bridge, Sheriff Street Upper, and North Wall Avenue.
Can I take the Luas or Bus?
On Tuesday the normal Red Line Luas service will be in place to take fans to and from The Point.
However, on Thursday and Friday, there will be no services to the 3Arena and passengers will have to get off at Busáras/Connolly and walk.
There will be a limited number of special Red Line services running after the concert.
A number of bus services operating along the north quays and other city centre areas will be diverted, so check for disruptions on the Dublin Bus website and TFI Live app.
