Whats the capacity of Citywest? Doesn't the UL arena hold more?

 

Thanks Cantona, would've missed it!

 

yeah i think they are look to get capacity between 4 and 5 thousand if it sells well who knows? they may very well put more seats in

 

If their going bringing it to Dublin why not a big arena like the o2?

 

Just my own opinion but Citywest would be much easier for the Limerick and Cork contingent to get to, being just off the N7.
Country lads might find the O2 more of a hassle to get to, add in hotels as well.

And I think it holds 5- 7000?
Never been in that side before.

 

Im sure if u can gaurentee a sell out they will put it on in the O2

no point in booking it and only selling 4500 tickets with the place looking half empty

Atleast in citywest if they sell more they think they can they can expand it up to 7500

 

Jaysus theres not that big a difference between getting to Citywest and the Point. I'm sure our culchie brethren can navigate their way to the venue if needs be!

I think Citywest is a bit of a soulless kip to be honest. Even since it's been done up I think the Point has more character but thats just a personal opinion. It won't come down to stuff like that. It will come down to economics.

 

exactly :deal

 

The new convention centre in citywest holds around 5000 excellent for boxing , have a look on the wedsite see wat u think

 

there is an extra 3000 balcony seats as well so Im lead to believe so if they do the 5000 they might put on more tickets

 

Casey v Rigo wouldnt fill the 02 - no chance. City West is a good option - and better for us Nordies to get to

 

Aye i suppose your right, but i would love if the fight was on in the o2 with 9000 plus fans in attendance:good. Obviously theres no chance of a crowd that big but how many do you reckon would be at it?

 

you big shower of whinging fairies would you go away and break out your passport and head to the north side of town ffs! :deal

 

Id say 4000-5000 would be a nice number but you never know the world title tag could peak the interest
