    Take the Luas to Busaras and Isaac's is right in front of you. It also goes onwards to the o2.

    Depending on traffic (which is always mental when anything is on in the Point) and allowing for a stop at the hostel, could be 12-15 euro.
    The LUAS could work out quicker.

    Yeah the Luas goes to the O2 or the point as it used to be known.

    If you're in a hurry get a joe maxi to the hostel from Heuston and then a Luas from Busaras to the gig.

    No point getting a taxi to the O2 as you'll just be sitting in traffic

    The Cork train comes in at Heuston - it's about 2 miles from Busaras, along the river.
    There is a LUAS station at Heuston that takes you all the way to the Point, allowing for a stop-off at your hostel which is about 70 metres from the Busaras LUAS stop.

    When is the concert? Isaacs is closed at the moment. There is a sign on the door referring people to Jacobs Inn.
