Air play Moon Safari at Trinity College Dublin: Stage times, set list, ticket information, weather and more

French duo Air will play their groundbreaking debut album, Moon Safari, in its entirety at their Summer Series at Trinity College Dublin concert on Sunday, June 30th.

Moon Safari, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary, propelled Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel to pop stardom and left an indelible mark on electronic music – not to mention the megahits it spawned: Kelly Watch The Stars, All I Need and Sexy Boy.

While Air have released six studio albums, it is their 25-year-old electronic pop classic that everyone remembers. Does it stand the test of time? If their sold-out concerts across Europe earlier this year are anything to go by, the answer is a resounding yes.

When do they play?

Air play Trinity College’s Summer Series in Dublin on Sunday, June 30th.

What time should I arrive?

Gates open at 7pm, with the show scheduled to start at 7.30pm.

Are there any tickets left?

Unfortunately the concert is sold out, but resale tickets may become available at ticketmaster.ie. Buy tickets from accredited sources only.

Who is the support act?

As the band will be playing Moon Safari in full, along with raiding their back catalogue, there is no support act.

How do I get there and home again?

Plan and book your return travel arrangements in advance, allowing for at least an extra two hours travel time to and from the venue. Attendees are encouraged to walk, cycle and use public transport to get to the concert. There will be one entry point at Lincoln Place Gate between Nassau Street and Westland Row, and there will be no entry to the site via the Front Square or Nassau Street gates.

By car: There will be no parking facilities provided at the concert site, and since the concert is in Dublin city centre, you may be best off parking elsewhere in the city and using public transport the rest of the way.

By train: Get the Dart to the Pearse Street or Tara Street stations, as they will be running services to and from the concerts each day. If travelling from Connolly/Heuston stations, get the Luas red line to Abbey Street and the green line from there to Dawson Luas stop, or you can walk as it’s about 15 minutes on foot.

By Luas: Trinity College is well serviced by the Luas green line, just get off at Dawson Luas stop and follow the signs to the concert.

By bus: Since you will be heading to a central part of the city, there are many Dublin Buses you can get to bring you within walking distance of the concert site. Routes 11, 37, 38, 38A, 38D, 39, 39A and 70 will bring you to Nassau Street and routes 9, 13, 16, 27, 49, 54a, 56a, 65b, 69, 77a, 83, 122, 123, 150 and 151 will bring you to Dame Street.

There is no accessible parking available for Trinity College, but if you have a blue badge, you can find accessible on-street parking here.

What’s the story with security?

This is a strictly over-18s event – ID will be required and anyone under 18 will be refused entry without refund. Allow time for security checks on the way in, and remember Trinity College is a standing-only site. Strict security checks will be in operation, and everyone will be subject to a search permissible under law.

Bags larger than A4 size will not be permitted and all bags may be searched; this can be time-consuming, so consider going bagless for easier entry. There will be no cloakroom or storage facilities. No umbrellas, alcohol, garden furniture, selfie sticks, drones, laser pens, aerosols, smoke and gas canisters, nitrous oxide and any associated equipment, flares, glasses, or cans, among other items, will be allowed into the event. There is no readmission to the concert, so once you leave there’s no getting back in.

Can I take photographs at the concert?

Yes, but only with a smartphone or small camera. Professional cameras with a detachable lens and any other recording equipment are banned.

What’s the weather forecast?

Sunday is expected to be dry, with some sunny spells in the early part of the day, while temperatures will be about 16 degrees as the concert gets under way. As this is an outdoor event, dress appropriately for inclement weather.
