Pip Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 well its a public park so the earliest you can queue is when it opens which on a weekend is about 8 or 9 What time does it open on a weekday? Presumably we can queue at the closed gates?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy kyle Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 What time does it open on a weekday? Presumably we can queue at the closed gates?? 7 i'd imagine,but its an awkward place to get to from the city centre,a good hours travel with trams and buses.

Could b fun getting back to the city centre tho can the people hu didnt get the gig bus down get the gig bus back again? They will be return tickets as far as I know, so if you didn't get one on the way down, you won't be able to get on the bus on the way back. I may be wrong though, I live the other direction from Marlay and have never used the special buses, but they usually only have the ticket bus in the city centre.

HungryJoe Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I can't remember if they check tickets coming back. I know I bought a return when I was there. But I'm sure with the 1000s of people getting on these buses it won't be too organised and I'm sure you could blag your way on. That's what I'm planning on doing.

I have never actually been to Marley park so i have no idea! You should get the train all the way into town and then just get on a bus out to Marlay, it will be much cheaper. Look here for which one to get: http://www.dublinbus.ie You are looking to get to Grange Road. Are you staying somewhere in town or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah Im going up then coming home after the concert getting a lift back with my friend Well the special buses don't run till an hour before the gates open but there is a scheduled bus service that passes Marlay Park that runs from about 7.30-8 am. Really even though people are talking about queuing from 6am, these will be the minority of hardcore nutters (me included), most people won't be there till the afternoon.

I would so love to do that if i was able!!! Unfortunatly i dont have like 100 euro for a taxi from here to the park that early! The earlier I'm there the happier i will be! I'm gonna have to start making a plan type thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
