What's parking like at the RDS? My brother is driving down for the Springsteen gig on the 5th May

For a gig will be a nightmare. Town or the Aviva

Park somewhere close to the DART and get DART to Sydney Parade.
That's 5 mins walk to RDS.

Handy to hop on after and avoids the Ballsbridge balls-up.

There's plenty of busses going down and that's the only job imo. We are being lifted in Strabane and taken direct to the gig on May 5th. Then back up the road an hour after, all for €35. You couldn't drive and park for that. There are numerous companies going from all corners of the island.

But if you fall behind, will the bus wait for you?
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

I was sitting at Slane for 2 hours waiting for a lost dose. They try not to leave minus

You could park at Connolly Station Car Park and then get the Dart out to the stadium, it is much handier than trying to get parked anywhere near the RDS.  Only 10 Euro for full day parking at Station and always plenty of spaces available.

Try Sandymount dart station to be closer to the RDS.
