Get the bus there from the main bus station in Dublin. If you go on the first day there are often free tickets to be had. Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.

Check the website to book one of the coaches to the track from Dublin city center. Make sure you go on the Friday it's the best day. One of the unique things is how many kids there are there, they are allowed off school that day to go. Shows how much horse racing means to community in Ireland.

Pay the extra and stay in Naas. Have booked into the Osprey today. It is more expensive than staying in Dublin but you do get the racing atmosphere. Staying in Dublin is like going to the Cheltenham festival and staying in Birmingham.

We've been before and are going for the Friday and Saturday this year. We stop in B&B's in Naas. Really enjoy it, much more relaxed than Cheltenham and good racing atmosphere in Naas.
