Getting to Dublin’s Top Concert Venues from The Arlington Hotel
Staying at The Arlington Hotel puts you in the perfect location to enjoy Dublin’s buzzing music scene. Whether you’re headed to the 3Arena, Marlay Park, St. Anne’s Park, or the Aviva Stadium, getting there is simple with a range of convenient transport options.
3Arena
Located at the Dublin Docklands, the 3Arena is just a 15–20 minute Luas ride away. Walk 5 minutes to Abbey Street Luas stop, take the Red Line towards The Point, and hop off at the final stop, right outside the venue. Alternatively, it’s a scenic 20-minute walk or a short taxi ride.
Marlay Park
Marlay Park, a major summer concert hotspot in South Dublin, is about 30–40 minutes from the city centre. Take the 16 or 14 bus from nearby stops towards Ballinteer or Dundrum, or use the Luas Green Line to Balally. For large events, special concert shuttle buses also run from Custom House Quay.
St. Anne’s Park
This venue is best reached by bus. Take the H1, H2, or H3 from Abbey Street to Raheny Village, then it’s a short walk to the park. Total travel time is around 30–40 minutes depending on traffic.
Aviva Stadium
The Aviva Stadium is located in Ballsbridge and is easily accessed via DART. Walk to Tara Street Station (about 10 minutes), then take the train to Lansdowne Road Station, right next to the stadium. You can also take the 7 or 4 bus from O’Connell Street.
No matter where your night takes you, The Arlington Hotel puts Dublin’s biggest events within easy reach.
