The Taxis for Ireland Coalition revealed this Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be particularly busy and revealed many will face long waits to get home.

Punters are being warned there will be a severe shortage of taxis this weekend as more than 60,000 will attend events across the capital.

Donall O’Keefe, CEO of the Licenced Vintners Association said “The last thing we want people in Dublin to feel is stranded, waiting late at night for taxis in areas they may be unfamiliar with. Taxis provide that extra layer of safety, particularly for visitors attending the city. "Taxis provide an essential service, particularly for tourists who often need to go door-to-door and can struggle with navigating the public transport system.”
