How to get to the Amgen Irish Open

The Amgen Irish Open will operate a free Park & Ride service for all ticket holders.

There will be two car parks available, one North and one South of the Venue. Once you’ve parked, you will travel on a bus to the course entrance. It’s a quick 10-minute ride, and both car parks are close to the course. Parking is free but you will NEED to book a car park pass in advance for your chosen car park. Once you have purchased your ticket you will be contacted regarding car parking so please look out for this communication.

There will be directional road signs to help you find your chosen car park.  Please follow the Variable Message Sign (VMS) on the motorways and main roads, as well as the yellow AA event signs, and any instructions from An Garda Siochana.

PLEASE DO NOT USE SAT NAV AFTER THE MOTORWAY AS THERE MAY BE POSSIBLE ROAD CLOSURES.

The Park & Ride car parks will open at different times at 6am every day. The first shuttle bus to the course will leave 15 minutes after the car parks have opened.  Please see table here.
