At 3Arena · East Link Bridge, Dublin 1, Co. Dublin
KATSEYE brings their first headline arena tour to Dublin on 1 September 2026, opening the European leg of the WILDWORLD TOUR at 3Arena. The six-member international girl group - formed through HYBE and Geffen Records’ Dream Academy and documented on Netflix’s Pop Star Academy - has had a rapid rise, earning two GRAMMY nominations for Best New Artist and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their track “Gabriela”. Dublin is the first stop on the entire tour before it sweeps through the UK and Europe, making this show a genuine first-night occasion for fans. It suits K-pop followers, pop fans, and anyone who has watched the group’s journey from the Netflix series; it is a full production arena show rather than an intimate gig.
KATSEYE are known for tight choreography, strong visual production, and a sound that sits somewhere between classic K-pop and contemporary global pop. Their catalogue includes “Gabriela” and “Gnarly”, and their EP WILD is due out in August 2026, so the Dublin crowd will be among the first to hear the new material performed live. Doors open at 6:30pm for a 7:00pm start; as with most 3Arena shows, the floor fills quickly, so early arrival is advisable. The venue runs at over 14,000 capacity for standing shows, so the atmosphere on a sold-out first night should be loud. Check the 3Arena website for any bag-policy updates before you travel, as restrictions have tightened at large venues in recent years.
Note: the show sold out through official channels. Resale tickets may be available through legitimate resale platforms, but buy with caution and avoid street touts.
3Arena sits on North Wall Quay in the Dublin Docklands, just east of the city centre. The easiest route from anywhere in Dublin is the Luas Red Line - the dedicated stop, The Point, is right outside the arena entrance and connects directly to Connolly Station and the city-centre stops on Abbey Street and Jervis. DART users change at Connolly. Dublin Bus also serves the area, with several routes running to North Wall Quay. If you are driving from outside Dublin, the M50 brings you close to the Port Tunnel exit; parking around the Docklands is limited on event nights, so the park-and-ride options at Red Cow or Tallaght and Luas into town are worth considering.
The Docklands itself has changed dramatically in the past decade and there are good spots for food and drinks along Grand Canal Dock before the show. The Custom House and the Ha’penny Bridge are a short walk along the quays if you want to get your bearings. There is more to see in Dublin and across Co. Dublin.
