At 3Arena · East Link Bridge, Dublin 1, Co. Dublin
Lily Allen comes to Dublin’s 3Arena for two nights at the end of June 2026, bringing her biggest headline tour to date. The show - titled “Lily Allen Performs West End Girl” - is built around her album West End Girl, which landed three consecutive Top 5 positions on the UK Albums Chart and has racked up over 150 million streams. This is an arena show proper, not a theatre run, and if you were at or heard about the sold-out theatre dates she did earlier in 2026, the scale here is a step up. Good for pop fans, anyone who grew up with Alright, Still or It’s Not Me, It’s You, and people who want a proper night out rather than a background gig.
The format is straightforward: Lily Allen plays West End Girl in full, in track order, start to finish. That kind of structured album performance gives a show a distinct feel - less of a greatest-hits medley, more of a considered arc from first song to last. The announcement also lists “plus special guests,” though no names have been confirmed publicly. Doors open at 6:30pm for a 7:00pm start, so arriving a little before 6:30pm gives you time to find your spot and be settled when the support acts take the stage. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult; standing is available for ages 14 and over.
3Arena sits at the East Link Bridge on the North Docklands - about a 20-minute walk from O’Connell Street along the Northside quays, past the IFSC. The most practical option for most people is the Luas Red Line: The Point stop is right beside the venue, and from Abbey Street or Jervis in the city centre the journey takes around 15 minutes. Dublin Bus route 151 also serves Castleforbes Road, a two-minute walk from the arena, running every 10 minutes during peak times with a last bus after 11pm. If you are coming by Irish Rail from outside Dublin, get in to Connolly Station and take the Luas from there - it is two stops to The Point. Parking at Point Village is limited and must be pre-booked (around €12 for concert evenings); on big show nights traffic into the area can be slow, so public transport is the far easier call.
The North Docklands has changed a lot and there are good spots to eat and drink before the show, particularly along the quays towards the Convention Centre and in the IFSC area. A night at 3Arena pairs well with a broader Dublin visit - there is plenty to fill the day. There is more to see in Dublin and across Co. Dublin.
