Everything you need to know about Billie Eilish’s Dublin shows

Fans are getting ready to check out Billie Eilish live on stage as she touches down in Dublin for the next leg of her latest tour.

The two-time Oscar winner is bringing her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour to the 3 Arena on July 26 and 27, having wowed Irish audiences back in 2022 with her Happier Than Ever tour.

For those heading to the event, here’s an overview of some of the things you need to know ahead of the show.

Who is the support act?

Billie’s support act for her tour is Syd — an American alternative R&B singer who rose to fame as a member of the Odd Future and went on to co-found the band The Internet in 2011.

Syd (whose real name is Sydney Loren Bennett) released her debut solo album Fin in 2017, and followed that up with Broken Hearts Club, in 2022.

What time do doors open?

Doors are expected to open at 5.30pm and Eilish’s support act is expected to take to the stage around 7:00pm.

Billie Eilish will begin her set around 8:30pm and is said to last one hour and 40 minutes. This means the the concert should end close to 10:15pm. 

Will there be non-vegan food served in the venue?

As it stands, we haven’t received confirmation over what food will be available in the venue, but judging by some of Billie’s other shows on the tour, there is a high possibility it will be vegan food only being served.

Fans were surprised to learn that London’s O2 Arena had a fully vegan menu for sale to concert-goers, which included a peri-peri halloumi wrap, chipotle tacos, pancakes and pizza.

The What Was I Made For singer was raised vegetarian and switched to veganism aged 12, way before it became one of the go-to lifestyles.

How to get to and from the 3Arena?

There are a number of public transport options for getting to the 3Arena:

• By Bus: The 151 bus stops right outside the venue and departs from Dublin City Centre on Eden Quay. Alternatively, the G1, G2 and N4 bus routes all stop within a 10-minute walk of the 3Arena. As some roads may be blocked off after the show, be sure to check where to go after the show.
• By Luas: The red line Luas has a terminus at The Point Village right by the 3Arena, and usually there are additional trams running on the nights of concerts.
• By Dart: The easiest way to travel to the venue by Dart is to get off at Connolly Station and walk to either the BusAras or George’s Dock Luas stops and get the tram the rest of the way.
• By Car: While there are car parks at the Point Village, there will be a lot of traffic in the area after the show, with some roads even being closed off while the concert-goers vacate the arena. Spaces are also limited so parking in another car park in town and getting public transport down to the venue might be a better option.

Anything else fans need to know?

Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult (aka a person over the age of 18) and those with standing tickets should note that the area is for those aged 14+ only. They may ask for ID to show proof of age, so have some form of official identification with you.
