Organisers of the summer series of concerts at Marlay Park in Dublin say comprehensive plans are in place to ensure the events are enjoyed by attendees and the local community alike.
Further details on security, health and safety arrangements, policing and traffic management were shared at a media briefing in Marlay House earlier today.
Five concerts - Arctic Monkeys, Dermot Kennedy, The Weeknd and Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe - are being held at the Rathfarnham venue over the next few weeks, while Longitude will take place over the first weekend of July.
More than 250,000 people are expected to attend the events.
"It's a really diverse range of acts which should appeal to every generation," explained Therese Langan of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council.
"And feedback from the local community was that last year's concerts were the best organised concerts that we've ever had, which was really heartening. Residents told us they want security and stewarding, and this year we have up to 70 council staff who will be volunteering to help out with that."
Concert-goers have been urged to make travel arrangements in advance, allowing an extra two hours to get to and from the venue.
With parking and traffic delays described as "inevitable", people have been encouraged to use event transport and coach services.
Superintendent Tom Gormley of An Garda Síochána said: "We are sure we will be able to police the events effectively and that everybody who attends will have a good time. Keeping the event-goers safe and the local community safe is our number one priority."
Marlay Park has been hosting concerts since 2001, when David Gray performed.
"We spend a lot of time talking to the local community in order to try to mitigate and minimise the impact," explained Festival Republic's Melvin Benn.
"But we are looking forward to seven amazing nights. These concerts have been amazing for the Irish economy. There will be 40,000 people each night, which means a quarter of a million people coming in and out of the park. The local community is impacted, but they benefit too."
