    Yeah- prob about 30/40 min cycle. I did see people last year who had the Dublin Bikes (bike rental scheme) and they left them near the park. 
    You can leave you bike in the College Road car park, as shown above.

    I remember a different image for that song but probably best not to recreate it next week- it would lead to arrest!

    Indeed, this is not the place to watch 100 naked ladies on bicycles!

    If there are people travelling to the Dublin show who want to be taken to the venue, I can meet you in the city and be the shepherd! 
    Are you not going to the show

    Can you walk from Temple Bar to the venue if you wanted?  Taking a bus that takes hours is definitely not in the cards for us.

    It'd be 2+ hours to walk on a normal day.

    It's a bit far to walk. The 14 bus will drop you a ten min walk from the park. The bus should hopefully not take too long in the afternoon. Going back, you would be best to walk to the Luas (tram) at the Balally stop and go to town from there.

    Yeah, but I live right beside the venue, so if anyone needs guidance, I can show them where to go.

    Thanks Luas Tram seems like best and fastest option, why is everyone talking about 2-3 hours on a bus.  I feel like I am missing something :)

    They should have picked a more inconvenient place.

    After the show the traffic in the area can be crazy and there are hours long waits for buses

    Yeah, it’s about a 30 min walk and runs up until 12.30

    If my bus is still sitting in the parking area 3hrs after the show, I will have to make a complaint in the official complaints thread. Don't want to go down that route.
