Live ’26 • Dublin • Updated October 21, 2026
Cody Johnson plays Dublin’s 3Arena on Thursday, November 5, 2026, with Parker McCollum and Emily Ann Roberts. Our setlist forecast favors the Live ’26 blend of Texas dance songs, newer material and the emotional closing run. Start the practical plan with the Luas Red Line to The Point, then leave enough time for a proper entry and the supporting bill.
A docklands show is easier when dinner, the final tram stop and the trip home are three separate decisions. Make those decisions before you join the crowd, and keep your bag small enough that you will be comfortable carrying it throughout the evening.

Vintage Live on Tour Jersey
For Dublin, pair the vintage jersey with black denim and a simple layer that you can keep with you. The cream base and red number bring enough color without adding accessories to carry. Check measurements and the available back-print options on the product page before choosing your size.

The Dublin story song on our list
“Travelin’ Soldier” is the encore choice we’re especially drawn to for Dublin. We’d give its narrative room to land after the intensity of the main-set finish, then use “Diamond in My Pocket” for a lighter send-off. That is our preferred shape for the ending: a moment to listen closely, followed by a release. Put both songs into the playlist for your journey to the venue.
Before you go: use The Point as your arrival anchor
Arrive for the bill, not an assumed headline time
The promoter’s listing gives 6:30 p.m. doors for November 5, and Ticketmaster lists the same evening time. Use your ticket and the final event notice for the running order. The 3Arena event page names Parker McCollum and Emily Ann Roberts in its heading.
Our suggested plan is to finish a sit-down meal before heading into the final approach. Keep an entrance buffer for screening and finding your section. If the group includes both standing and seated tickets, agree on the meeting place before entry instead of assuming everyone can move into the same area once inside.
Red Line outward, checked connection home
The venue’s travel guide identifies The Point on the Luas Red Line beside the arena. It also describes connections from Connolly and Heuston for visitors arriving by Irish Rail. Check the whole return journey, not just the tram back toward the center; an onward train or bus can be the limiting part of the evening.
If you walk from elsewhere in the docklands, save the route in advance and choose a meeting point with a name everyone can recognize. For driving, the venue says parking at Point Village is limited and operated separately. Check the parking operator’s arrangements before relying on a space, and leave time for traffic on both sides of the concert.
No cloakroom means carrying the outfit you bring
The 3Arena FAQs allow bags up to 40 × 40 × 20 cm, prohibit oversized luggage and large rucksacks, and state that the venue has no cloakroom. Keep your packing light even when a bag technically fits the dimensions. A jacket you can fold or wear comfortably is more practical than a bulky coat you will want to hand in.
The same guide says the venue is cashless and does not allow outside food or drinks; re-entry is not permitted. Have your ticket, card and phone ready, and finish any food plans before going through the entrance. Add earplugs and comfortable footwear to the essentials, particularly if you hold a standing ticket.
✓ The final check
Correct city and date on every ticket; ticket app ready; charged phone; ID and payment method; a measured small bag; comfortable footwear; and the return journey shared with your group. Recheck the linked venue page before you leave for the final entry information.
Keep the bag light, make The Point the clear arrival marker, and save the onward connection before the night starts. Once the band is playing, our listening advice is simpler: enjoy the fast songs, then give the story songs the same attention you would give a conversation.
