Show summary Hide summary
Lily Allen has arrived in Dublin to play two nights at the 3Arena, bringing her critically praised West End Girl tour to the city after a string of sell‑out shows across the UK. An additional date was added amid strong demand, giving fans two chances to catch the pop star live.
Dates, demand and tickets
The concerts take place on Tuesday 30 June and Wednesday 1 July. The extra June date was added after the initial show sold quickly. Ticket prices start at €51.20 and, according to the promoter, the 30 June performance now has only limited availability while the 1 July show is also selling fast.

All tickets are being distributed through Ticketmaster. Organisers warn buyers to purchase only from official sellers because demand is high. Doors at the 3Arena open at 6.30pm and early queues are expected; latecomers should note the artist will perform the new album from the start.
What she’ll be performing
Allen will present the new record in full. The album has been framed by the artist as a way to “put the pieces back together” after a turbulent period in her life, and several tracks have attracted particular attention—most notably the song widely discussed in media coverage, “Who Is Madeline?”.
Fans can also expect material from her earlier career: Allen rose to fame in the 2000s with hits such as “Not Fair” and the chart‑stirring “F**k You”. Reviewers and listeners have highlighted her sharp, candid lyricism on recent singles.
Personal context behind the songs
This phase of Allen’s career follows a high‑profile personal chapter. The singer married actor David Harbour in Las Vegas, relocated to New York and later faced a very public breakdown of that marriage amid allegations of infidelity. She has spoken publicly about channeling the messiness of her 30s and the tension between life in London and New York into her songwriting.
She is also sober and has expanded her creative profile into acting; the upcoming film Virginia Woolf’s Night and Day is described as her largest screen role to date.
Getting to the 3Arena — practical tips
The easiest public transport option for the venue is the Luas Red Line, which serves The Point stop outside the arena. Trams run roughly every 8–10 minutes, but services typically become very busy from about 5.30pm on show nights, so allow extra travel time.
There is no public parking at the venue and traffic in the Docklands area is often heavy during events. Expect security checks upon entry; the arena enforces a strict bag size limit of 40×40×20cm, which can slow the admission process.
With the new album performed in full and limited ticket availability, organisers advise planning arrival times carefully and buying only through Ticketmaster to avoid secondary‑market issues.
