The need for such a theater arose because numerous international theater groups were yearning to perform in the city, but save for the O2, there wasn't a venue prominent enough to host by William Murphy them, and the O2 couldn't accommodate all of the performances in its schedule. Thus, an initiative for another first-rate theater was taken, and with the approval of the Dublin Dockyards Development Authority, the construction of the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre began in 2007. Opened in March 2010, this theater has hosted a passel of cultural events, including ballets, plays, operas, concerts and much more. With a capacity of 2111, this is one of the premier venues for major events in the city. +353 1 677 7999 www.bordgaisenergytheat [email protected] Grand Canal Square, Dublín re.ie/ 3Arena "Dublin's Premeire Venue" The space that occupies 3Arena has changed names and ownership quite a few times, it was earlier known as The Point Theater which closed in 2007 to make way for The O2 in 2008; post-2014, The O2 was sponsored by O2's rival Three Ireland and hence the 3Arena was born.
