lists Dublin carparks, their prices and hours.

I think that the one off Parnell Street, behind UGC Cinemas, only a short walk from Ambassador, would be perfect because it is open until 12:30am and (possibly) only 5 euro for the evening.

There's a small multi-storey in Frederick Street (IIRC) which is reasonably close, open all night. Run by that shower who appear to own half the carparks in the country (can't remember their name, not Europark) so at least it's got a guy at the front deak. Comical slant in the place though. About a fiver for the night.

The gig will be over by 2330 ... why not park on street around Parnell Sq.?

Where are you travelling from?

There is on-street parking all around Parnell Square (if you're not familiar, basically the Ambassador is on one corner of the square), bit busy because it is also beside the hospital.

For multi-storey pay car parks there is one on Cathal Bruagh street which is about a 2 minute walk from the Ambassador, or one behind UGC cinema, again two minute walk from Ambassador, both should be safe enough, though the UGC one probably in a slightly more savoury area, and busy with cinema goers coming and going, centre security guards etc.
