Gaelcon has a new home just outside Dublin city center. This year we will be in the conference center of the D4hotels Ballsbridge Inn on Pembroke Road. This is an excellent choice as we will have the conference center to ourselves for the weekend including over night for the running late, late night games and events and for those who will be staying up the on site pizza palour will be open until 2am. So how do you get there and back again?
By bus: The Dublin bus routes 10, 18, 4/A, 5 and 7/A all run down Pembroke road and catching them from the city center will generally have you arriving right outside in 10 minutes. The 4/A and the 7/A share the same bus stop and can be got on O'Connell street or right beside T.C.D. How many gamers will you be able to spot on the bus ? The air coach from Dublin Airport also stops at the back of the hotel for those flying in. By train: The nearest Dart station to Gaelcon is Lansdowne Road DART Station a mere 5 minute walk to the Hotel. By foot: It is a 20 minute walk from the Stephens Green shopping center to Gaelcon.

Looking forward to seeing you all in Gaelcon's new home October bank holiday weekend 2009.
