Arcade Fire - Marlay Park, June 2014!

dmm82

Anyone know if you can bring drink into marley park?? I know they let us the last time I was there but that was for the arctic monkeys about 8 or so years ago and could have been a once off. Not bags of cans or anything just maybe a bit of vodka in a plastic bottle

Those days are long over friend... :rolleyes:

You can easily get away with it, but it's technically very not allowed.

Looking forward to seeing Tvvins opening, really enjoyed them the few times I've seen them.

Probably unpopular opinion but really couldn't care less about the Pixies though...

Was there a link up somewhere here where you could book a bus seat from town out to Marley Park and back...without relying on Dublin bus?

Flying in that morning so don't want to have to book a particular time bus, are Dublin bus running concert buses for this?

Cartman78

Sure we'll probably all fit in the one mini bus by the sounds of it

Saw on another thread there that 'Ham Sandwich' are on at 4.30pm

Pixies in at 6 Arcade Fire on at 8/Half 8? Is my guess anyways!

Dublin Bus dont do any extra buses just the normal route/times etc. I would recommend that if you do get DB get an early one unless you want to get stuck in traffice

Will there be food/drink stall in there?

Anyway of getting confirmation on the Pixies start time I'm wondering. We'll be coming straight from Croker but don't want to miss any of the Pixies.

Anybody got any idea about overnight parking near Marlay Park?

toygee99

Are their ATM facilities on site?

also looking for stage times… hope to catch Mexico Vs Netherlands in The Eden Pub before the gig at 5… hope it doesn't go to ET and Penos

Do you think I will be able to bring in a folding camping chair?

My wife will be 36-weeks pregnant on Saturday, so will need a seat to rest on every now and then while we're there. The "event T&Cs" state no chairs, but surely they'll make an exception for a pregnant woman?

For what it's worth, we're not really fussed about any of the support acts so we'll probably just arrive for around 8pm, assuming Arcade Fire will probably be on-stage at 8:30/9.

Send um an email I'd say,
I know at green day in 2010 they let an expecting mother into the wheel chair area where she had a seat.

Hi. Just wondering if there is a bus going through bray on sunday for arcade fire in marlay park? If not does anyone want to share a taxi. There are two of us hoping to get the price down for a return trip.

Hi. Tried that at Radiohead in Malahide once. The seat was confiscated but my wife was allowed into the disabled access area. She didn't bother though as it would have meant splitting up from friends. She just sat on the ground.

There was a pregnant woman at longitude last year, and she had a fold up chair / stool.

Does anyone know where the entrance into Marley Park is for Concerts?

Well folks, culchie boy here coming up to the big shmoke for this gig! Can anyone tell me should I just get a taxi from the city centre, or can I get the Luas to Dundrum or Balally and walk from there? i dont mind walking 30-45 minutes if needs be. I just hate nothing more than being stuck in traffic!!!

Get the LUAS to Ballally, walk up Wyckham Way and then down Ballinteer Avenue. Couple of pubs on the way should you get thirsty.. 25 minutes tops!

Nalz

I just checked ticketmaster and it's not sold out. By the looks of toutless a lot of people are trying to offload tickets even selling them under face value.

if you only want to see AF then you would be fine.
Dublin match should be over by 5:30, walk out to Drumcondra and get on the 16 and would be out to Marley Park by 7 anyway.

Ham Sandwich are on at 4:30 so with at least an hour set, and about 40mins stage setup before The Pixies, it will be 6:15 at the earliest until they go on stage i'd imagine.

Where are you selling them?

Only after seeing this thread now, why are so many people looking to offload tickets?
