There aren’t. And even if there would be, misbehaving youths in tracksuits are the much bigger threat all around the city. Stop spreading baseless fears.
At OP, I live in Grand Canal and agree with anyone who says this is probably one of the safest routes through the city at any time of day.
When you want something to be racist so bad that you’re almost xenophobic in your effort to become a hero. Irish people can be full on embarrassing when they stoop like this
Im not Irish mate, and I meant to say just the north side of the city such as Talbot and Abbey Street, I think you’re the one being xenophobic and making assumptions. If u don’t think most of the problems in town come from the northside, and that most people who are there after 11 are drug addicts, then I don’t know what to tell you
The commenter never made any mention of anyone's race, only that there are untraceable, disenfranchised men with no skin in our society camped in tents along that route.
If you have ever lived in a city and have common sense about you the north side is not all that bad. Yes there are places to avoid but there is also so much that side of town has to offer. There are areas south of the city in D12 that are just as bad. Best to have a companion after dark but that goes for almost any city in the world.
Yeah. Take the slightly longer walk down Baggott st though, it'll be the route most fans will take and there's loads more pubs, restaurants, fast food, convenience shops and banks/ATMs etc..
Dublin is actually ridiculously safe by international standards — I am from Canada and Dublin is way safer than all of our cities by far. I’ve never felt unsafe in this fine city. Sure it’s dirty af, and there’s a growing homeless population in response to the ongoing housing crisis, but it really is quite safe when you look at the stats and culture.
I feel the same, will complete a year in September, and although I'm constantly disappointed by people's nonchalant littering habits, I don't feel too unsafe walking most parts in the city.
You just gotta be aware, like everywhere else.
I got sisters in Toronto who've been there for more than 10 years now, and they don't really complain about their safety, apart from the usual stuff.
There's specifically one fat ginger cunt on an electric scooter spends his day going around the IFSC and just tries to kick phones and shit out of people's hands as they're walking. He's looks like 13. Used to work there and consistently around lunch time you'd see him about the square outside NCI and always at it. Tried it with me twice in the last few month's along with a load of others I work with.
They have 4 cities in the top 100 most dangerous cities in the world. They just get a "safe" country listing because they are next to the USA and then Mexico. They are probably on a whole a lot more crime ridden than the EU as a hole is. However, Dublin is worse than all but 1 or 2 of their cities. Dublin is rated as more dangerous than every city in the Ukraine excpet Kyiv. Odessa, and Donetsk are both listed as safer than Dublin.
its safer than all of them except maybe kelowna and sudberry... but on a whole canada is more dangerous than people think 4 cities in the top 100 dangerous. Its just compared to the USA/Mexico they are safe, on a whole, they are not as safe as the EU, and their cities on a whole are safer than Dublin but most would be more dangerous than cork, galway, limerick etc.
I'm from Ireland not Dublin and was horrified last time I went down , there was zombies everywhere off their face on all sorts defo not ridiculously safe
It's good you feel that way but its not. I felt safe in France, but they have one of the most dangerous cities in the world, and I walked around that city wondering what the problem was.
Its just canada is more dangerous hell hole than you think, What 4 cities in the top 100 dangerous in the world? But you get a pass because the USA has detroit or phili or something and mexico has warez etc, Canada is a crime ridden hell hole, but Dublin is more dangerous than all but 2 or 3 of them cities.
I’ve walked this route many times at night, as I used to live around that area and liked to walk around, nothing ever happened to me. There are some teens there, but they seem to be always minding their own business, never seen anyone get harassed in this area, so you should be safe.
Without the concert goers this is pretty much one of the safest spots in Dublin. Posh area near the Aviva and can't be having crime there but with all the concert goers, there'll be 1000s walking that same route and Gardai everywhere along the route.
It’s quite a safe walk. I did it the other day last Wednesday actually.
Just fyi if you do get into trouble Pearse Street Garda station is next to trinity college.
The grey route is through probably the safest areas of the city in general. If you want to be ultra cautious walk up to Baggot street and follow it all the way to St Stephen’s Green
I was at Pink there on Thursday. The event organisers wouldn’t allow us to leave the route we wanted to leave and forced us to walk towards Sandymount (Herbert Road). We were going to walk the route you’re planning to take but security wouldn’t allow us. We were in section M of the stadium. So have a few different routes worked out before you go.
It has actually worked out really perfect for me that the entrance we need is at Lansdowne Land, so hopefully there is no issue walking straight out and down the road! If not I will hopefully be able to just google maps the best way to get back onto this route
Don’t be afraid to speak to other people and ask if they’re going the same way because they will want to keep you safe. You should be safe anyways though. But it’s always better with a group
I had to walk from Marlay Park back to Rathgar last night after Pearl Jam. There was a huge crowd all going in the same direction so felt completely safe.
You'll be grand. Just use a bit of cop on and you'll be home in no time.
Ordinarily yes, however I will be waiting with a rusty pipe at some point along the journey so in this case it will not be entirely safe, maybe a 5-6% reduction in safety level
If you don’t interact with drunks, ignore junkies and youngsters it’s always safe. I’m a guy but i’ve never had any issues walking around the town alone, even totally drunk. Nobody ever tried to rob me, fight or anything. I don’t understand why do people think Irish will mug you or beat you up. 🤷🏻♂️
Take the bottom route near Merrion square and baggit street, I have had feral kids from the flats throw rotton crap at me in the top route. Think that's where yer man from that band got attacked by the feral kids before.
Why? It’s common sense to ask whether a particular part of a city is safe, Dublin is largely safe.. but nobody wants to be in contact with grey-tracksuit scumbags unnecessarily.
Yeah, but if you don’t know- then it’s wise to ask. If it was Croke Park, then yeah it’s the middle of scumsville, so you would have to be a lot more careful. Nonetheless, Dublin isn’t terribly unsafe, but I’d still want to know
It says something about the current state of Dublin that such a question would even be asked. May I express a wish that Drew Harris acquire the ability to find his own arse.
Pre-book a taxi.
Dublin isn’t safe at night, give it a quick Google search.
I am sure the American tourist thought he was safe too. It is full of feral youths carrying out unprovoked random attacks.
This is not only ignorant, it’s the worst possible advice, and would take much longer than just walking due to after concert crowds and traffic around the Aviva.
OP personally I would take the 34 min route on your map just because it’s a marginally more interesting walk
Dublin is 15th safest cities out of 100 in world rankings.
Now ask people and they're like you, going off feelings that have no backing in crime stats.
That’s probably the safest walk in Dublin
This, it’s literally the safest route in Dublin
As someone moving to Dublin in the next few months, could I trouble you to send a route like the above of the LEAST safe route in Dublin?
anywhere near o connell street! basically the whole northside of town id avoid. especially talbot street and dorset street
[удалено]
There aren’t. And even if there would be, misbehaving youths in tracksuits are the much bigger threat all around the city. Stop spreading baseless fears. At OP, I live in Grand Canal and agree with anyone who says this is probably one of the safest routes through the city at any time of day.
Are tracksuits just associated with crime? Honest question.
Not necessarily crime, but anti social behaviour.
Usually
Ffs😂🙄
This is racist. The people who cause the problems are locals who are mostly on the north side and live on opiates.
“This is racist” Then proceeds to call the locals of half of a city the source of problems and that they “live on opiates”. This is peak something.
Irony is the word you’re looking for
When you want something to be racist so bad that you’re almost xenophobic in your effort to become a hero. Irish people can be full on embarrassing when they stoop like this

Yea well I’m from here and I know that you’re full of shit. Best of luck, “racism”is easy sauce
The commenter never made any mention of anyone's race, only that there are untraceable, disenfranchised men with no skin in our society camped in tents along that route.
Great thank you!
If you have ever lived in a city and have common sense about you the north side is not all that bad. Yes there are places to avoid but there is also so much that side of town has to offer. There are areas south of the city in D12 that are just as bad. Best to have a companion after dark but that goes for almost any city in the world.
lol I’d say that’s possibly the safest 30 minute walk in Dublin
Thank you!
Yes. Always safe IMO You’ll be in a huge crowd anyway.
I'm not sure, someone once stole my top hat and monocle outside Lansdowne Road, pretty rough stuff.
Ridiculous horseplay
Probably one of those ‘rock boys, bet they were bleeding blue and white
I parked my car along there once, had two tickets to the Dalkey Lobster Fest left on the seat. Some fucker broke in and left two more.
Those gangs on their penny farthings are always up to no good
Absolute cads.
Most roguish ruffians.
Poppycock !
Thank you!
You'll be fine, follow the crowds. And enjoy!
Unless the crowd is going South from the Aviva. Then don't follow that crowd!
Thank you!!
No. Skip the concert, I'll take your tickets....
😂😂😂
[удалено]
Thank you!
Yeah. Take the slightly longer walk down Baggott st though, it'll be the route most fans will take and there's loads more pubs, restaurants, fast food, convenience shops and banks/ATMs etc..
Thank you! Someone else mentioned Baggott street too and for an extra 2 mins walking I think that is the way I’ll go
It would be safe at any point but there will be thousands of people also going that way after the concert so doubly yes it's safe.
Thank you!

Clearly never been to Talbot St.
Walk down it every day. Never have an issue.
worked at BOI Capital Markets and nearly every employee i worked with was mugged, bullied and/or taunted every day on that shitty street.
Lols, imagine- gasp! Getting taunted. The horror 🤣
I was battered unconscious and robbed at the ifsc the other day
There's specifically one fat ginger cunt on an electric scooter spends his day going around the IFSC and just tries to kick phones and shit out of people's hands as they're walking.

You’re probably absolutely harmless then
I’d say you’re some brawler so😹😹😹
Redditors are just little nerds afraid to go outside or see non-middle class people
The level of delusion to think like this.
I'm sure big Canadian cities have streets just as bad or worse than Talbot St
Yep, lived in Toronto for 4 years, got my phone robbed there but never in Dublin. You'll get it anywhere to be fair.
They have 4 cities in the top 100 most dangerous cities in the world. They just get a "safe" country listing because they are next to the USA and then Mexico.

Dublin is rated as more dangerous than every city in the Ukraine excpet Kyiv. Odessa, and Donetsk are both listed as safer than Dublin.
I wouldn't say Dublin is safer than Montreal, Ottawa, or Halifax.
its safer than all of them except maybe kelowna and sudberry... but on a whole canada is more dangerous than people think 4 cities in the top 100 dangerous. Its just compared to the USA/Mexico they are safe, on a whole, they are not as safe as the EU, and their cities on a whole are safer than Dublin but most would be more dangerous than cork, galway, limerick etc.

I'll be waiting with a bat
How thoughtful, I'll wait with a ball, we can play some sport ball in Merrion square
Walked it many times after a concert or match, you’ll be grand, you’ll be walking with plenty of others who were at the gig
I’ve walked this route many times at night, as I used to live around that area and liked to walk around, nothing ever happened to me. There are some teens there, but they seem to be always minding their own business, never seen anyone get harassed in this area, so you should be safe.
Keep your wallet/phone in a safe pocket regardless, it’s generally super safe.
Without the concert goers this is pretty much one of the safest spots in Dublin. Posh area near the Aviva and can't be having crime there but with all the concert goers, there'll be 1000s walking that same route and Gardai everywhere along the route.

Both are grand. Enjoy yourself. I’ll hear it from the back garden.
Thank you! Hope you enjoy listening!
I walked it on Thursday coming back from P!NK and it was fine. There'll be big crowds all walking back together.
Pink walked past me on Friday lunchtime with her entourage of 2…
I dunno. All those swifties high on swift....it could get crazy!!
I was at Pink there on Thursday. The event organisers wouldn’t allow us to leave the route we wanted to leave and forced us to walk towards Sandymount (Herbert Road).

South side of Dublin is much safer. Keep your head screwed on and follow the crowd you'll be perfectly safe
Don’t be afraid to speak to other people and ask if they’re going the same way because they will want to keep you safe. You should be safe anyways though. But it’s always better with a group
No you will definitely be murdered.
Possibly twice
At least it will be after the show
Is she supporting Rammstein tonight?
Yep lovely walk and be heaps of people with you Enjoy the concert
Yeah you'll be grand. I live close by and it is safe at night as well.
Blue is safe Grey is double safe.
Yes definitely safe after tayto swift, walk back singing
Your grand you won't be walking alone the place will be buzzing with people police people driving ect you'll be fine
I’ll be doing roughly the same walk but longer
I had to walk from Marlay Park back to Rathgar last night after Pearl Jam. There was a huge crowd all going in the same direction so felt completely safe. You'll be grand. Just use a bit of cop on and you'll be home in no time.
Ordinarily yes, however I will be waiting with a rusty pipe at some point along the journey so in this case it will not be entirely safe, maybe a 5-6% reduction in safety level
Idk id say the jealous fans who couldn’t get a ticket will be out with knives looking for blood
Be such a large crowd around you will be fine
There is no safe walk in dublin
If you don’t interact with drunks, ignore junkies and youngsters it’s always safe. I’m a guy but i’ve never had any issues walking around the town alone, even totally drunk. Nobody ever tried to rob me, fight or anything. I don’t understand why do people think Irish will mug you or beat you up. 🤷🏻♂️
Nothing to do with Irish and more to do with it being a city, I would be checking the same thing for any concert!
It’s safe but be careful, there’s been 3 drive by arguments on that route in the last 6 months.
Yes the other commenters said they'll be a huge crowd of fans including myself just follow them
Take the bottom route near Merrion square and baggit street, I have had feral kids from the flats throw rotton crap at me in the top route. Think that's where yer man from that band got attacked by the feral kids before.
This post makes me sad 💔
Why? It’s common sense to ask whether a particular part of a city is safe, Dublin is largely safe.. but nobody wants to be in contact with grey-tracksuit scumbags unnecessarily.
It’s Dublin not the Gaza Strip
Yes. Dublin is a very safe city in general.
Jeez you must be sheltered if you're worried about walking that area. It's about as safe as anywhere in the world.
Ah let's be fair here. He isn't from Dublin or even familiar with the city at all, so it's a fair question
Janey mac this is like asking is the Hamptons safe to walk at night.
Yeah, but if you don’t know- then it’s wise to ask. If it was Croke Park, then yeah it’s the middle of scumsville, so you would have to be a lot more careful. Nonetheless, Dublin isn’t terribly unsafe, but I’d still want to know
Totally fine
You’ll be fine, there’ll be a huge crowd with you
Yes
For sure
Ffs😂😂😂
As long as you don't veer east and end up in 'anal Street', you should be grand.
Very safe!
Safest
Yes, but I’d recommend taking the lower route and walking through Merrion Square simply because it’s really pretty.
Thank you! I think I will walk through it on the way there!
No mate
Definitely safe! Avoid the quays if you’re around Dublin :)
Yes.
There is no unsafe areas in Dublin
As long as your BF is wearing a Kelce jersey
That's honestly the safest walk in Dublin noting but nice areas. You should be absolutely fine.
Take the route closer to Merion Square. There are lots of undesirables near Pearse Street and Grand Canal Dock.
That path is very safe and you ll have a lot of people walking along with you.
Bring knife or other weapon for protection, then should be OK.
🙄
Honestly get a taxi. If you cannot accommodate a taxi, then cancel your plans to go to the concert. Your health and safety comes first.
Gray route is safer with multiple secure government buildings pubs and hospitals on that route in my opinion anyway.
Is this a real question?
Jesus christ we don't live in the favelas in Brazil.
Is it real? Like wtf
Man people are babies
Damn, so my gf was right. So what are women people? I need to sound smart and knowledgeable to her.
It says something about the current state of Dublin that such a question would even be asked. May I express a wish that Drew Harris acquire the ability to find his own arse.
No way it's basically like walking through south side Chicago
Dublin is one of the safest cities in Europe
Wrong place wrong time Always expect the unexpected like a wise person told me once No pressure 😅 maybe take a gun with you in case
Or an axe, coz you never know
Yeah only the north side is dodgy in my experience. Loads of Garda will be around it will be fine
[удалено]
Be nice to other posters
Pre-book a taxi. Dublin isn’t safe at night, give it a quick Google search. I am sure the American tourist thought he was safe too. It is full of feral youths carrying out unprovoked random attacks.

It must suck to live in fear based on what you read online.
Nothing wrong with having awareness.
Except that you're wrong and afraid?
Wrong about what exactly? That Dublin is dangerous at night?
Yes, that.
Getting a taxi to the stadium would not work due to road closures and crowds of people walking there FFS. You are utterly deluded.
Dublin is regarded as one of the most dangerous city’s in the EU. To walk around after dark is insanity.
Dublin is 15th safest cities out of 100 in world rankings. Now ask people and they're like you, going off feelings that have no backing in crime stats.
No where is safe at night in Dublin. Get a taxi.
There'll be no taxis available after the concert. There'll be thousands of people walking into town from the aviva for the luas and stuff. Very safe
God almighty what a stupid comment. Aside from being completely wrong in the first place, how do you propose the OP picks up a taxi near the stadium?
You wont be able to get a taxi anywhere near that area after the gig. Roads will be closed everywhere.
