About RDS Arena

A Victorian showground in Ballsbridge, the RDS has long hosted Leinster rugby alongside concerts, exhibitions and the Dublin Horse Show, giving it a character quite unlike a purpose-built stadium. The surrounding Dublin 4 streets are handsome and leafy, with Sandymount's cafés and the coast a short walk east. Lansdowne Road and Sandymount DART stations are both close, linking straight into the city centre. Staying in Ballsbridge or the centre keeps restaurants and transport near without a long journey home.
