Iarnród Éireann has urged revellers to organise their travel plans in advance and to allow extra time ahead of a busy weekend of concerts and events in Dublin city.
"We're definitely ramping up to provide as much capacity as we can. There’s certainly never been a weekend like it in terms of the number of huge events happening at the same time," said Iarnród Éireann Communications Manager Barry Kenny. "Everything we have will be moving but we are asking our customers to plan their travel. If you haven’t booked intercity in advance, don’t turn up to the station. There won’t be tickets available," Mr Kenny said.
"So while we’ve been ramping up for Taylor Swift and Dublin Pride and the events that we know, we find out last Sunday who’s playing in the quarter-finals," Mr Kenny said. Earlier this week, the public were also warned of the possibility of taxi shortages in Dublin over the weekend.
