Malahide Castle Depeche…

Went to Malahide Castle for Depeche mode. Seamless all the way in. Parked 300m from the venue. Staff very pleasant all the way in.
It was busy on the way out buts that’s expected when you’re parked so close to the event. Staff very efficient in getting people out. I was back on the road in 40minutes after the concert.

Arctic monkeys cancelled

Arctic monkeys cancelled. I wasn't charged a service charge until it came to giving a refund. Then I was deducted one.

I used Marathon Coaches 6 times this week for The weekend gig and longitude. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Hassle free transport to and from Dublin City Centre. Well organised and lovely staff and drivers. I will definitely use the service again. T

Car parking at malahide castle was a joke. There was no traffic management and it was pure chaos. We were stuck for 1.5 hours in the field trying to get out onto the road after the Depeche Mode concert - it was a shambles. People should be refunded for parking given the poor set up. Would never consider parking there again.

Better off walking home

Great service for the way into the concert . 100% would recommend however on the way home you would have been quicker walking back to the car. We stood in line for like 2 hours waiting on a bus after the concert had ended

We were worried we wouldn’t get on the bus or would be limited buses but were we wrong! There was so many buses to look after everyone to and from venue, team were excellent getting everyone on and off safe! Will be using this service for sure again in the future!
