U2 Travelguide » Dublin » Dandelion Car Park - St. Stephen's Green Shopping Centre


Info

In the summer of 1979 U2 played multiple concerts here in order to cleverly circumvent strict Irish licensing laws that prohibit underage youths the entry to clubs. The concerts took place on Saturdays and attracted more people every time, particularly under-18s. For the first time U2 successfully played in front of larger audiences. Dandelion Car Park no longer exists, though – today it is the site of St. Stephen's Green Shopping Centre, and only a plaque of the Dublin Rock'N'Stroll informs visitors about its history. The plaque can be found on the side of the shopping centre, just next to the entrance to TGI Friday.
