How the Journey Works

Travelling to Kodaline’s farewell concert at 3Arena should be an enjoyable part of the experience from the moment you leave home. Irish Concert Travel provides a comfortable same-day return coach service, allowing fans to enjoy one of the most anticipated Irish concerts of 2026 without the hassle of driving into Dublin. Whether you’re travelling with friends, family or fellow Kodaline fans, our coach service lets you relax and focus on the excitement of the evening while we take care of the journey.

Our coaches collect passengers from regional pickup locations across Ireland, making travel to the capital simple and convenient. Exact pickup points, departure times and route information are provided when booking your seat. Each journey is carefully planned to ensure a smooth trip to Dublin, with scheduled comfort stops where required before arriving close to 3Arena well in advance of the venue doors opening. This gives you plenty of time to soak up the pre-show atmosphere, grab refreshments or explore the surrounding area before the concert begins.

3Arena is one of Ireland’s busiest live entertainment venues, welcoming thousands of concertgoers for every major event. On busy show days, traffic around Dublin Port and the city centre can become particularly congested. Our experienced drivers are familiar with approved coach routes, event traffic management plans and designated coach drop-off locations, helping to ensure your arrival is as smooth and efficient as possible. Travelling by coach also removes the stress of finding city-centre parking or relying on late-night public transport after the concert.

Once Kodaline perform their final encore and the audience begins to leave the arena, your return journey is just as straightforward. Coaches depart from the designated collection point 30 minutes after the concert finishes. Simply board your coach, settle into your seat and relax while we take care of the journey home.

Choosing the bus to Kodaline at 3Arena means you can enjoy a comfortable, stress-free concert experience from start to finish. With no parking worries, no train timetables and no late-night driving, you’ll be free to enjoy every moment of this unforgettable farewell performance knowing your transport has already been arranged.
