Founded in 1984 by Dr. Séamus McDermott, The Liffey Trust Centre is a renowned enterprise and arts hub located in Dublin's Silicon Docks. The centre is famous for its Liffey Trust Studios, which comprise seven state-of-the-art dance and rehearsal spaces used by high-profile productions like Riverdance, Dancing with the Stars, and The Voice. Beyond the arts, the Trust is a charitable organization dedicated to helping entrepreneurs; it has helped over 200 businesses find their feet and created over 1,000 jobs. The building is a vibrant "work, rest, and play" environment, combining modern office spaces, professional food production kitchens, and world-class rehearsal facilities, all situated just steps away from the 3Arena.

Car Parking

While the Liffey Trust Centre is located in a busy part of the Dublin Docklands, it does not have a large public car park on-site, but it offers the following options:

  • Nearby Public Parking: The closest major car park is the Euro Car Parks at The Point (3Arena), located just a 3-minute walk away.

  • Public Transport: The venue is exceptionally well-served by the Luas Red Line, with the The Point stop located directly outside the door. It is also within walking distance of Connolly Station and served by the Swords Express bus.

  • Proximity to Airport: Due to its location near the Port Tunnel, the venue is approximately 15–20 minutes from Dublin Airport.

Café & Bar

The Liffey Trust Centre is a major culinary and social hub in the Docklands:

  • The Food Hub: The centre houses 10 purpose-built professional kitchens used by famous Dublin eateries like Las Tapas de Lola, The Bakehouse, and Lolly and Cooks. Many of these provide catering and "grab and go" options.

  • The Green Room Bar: Located right next door to the studios, this is a lively bar and restaurant that is popular with studio users for post-rehearsal drinks and meals.
