Exhibiting at Citywest
The Citywest Hotel and convention centre is in Saggart, County Dublin, on the N7, about 25 minutes from both the city centre and Dublin Airport. The campus has 16,499 square metres of meeting and event space in total, takes up to 4,100 delegates, and describes itself as offering Ireland's largest choice of conference space.
Unlike the RDS or The CCD, Citywest is an out-of-town hotel campus. That means road access from the N7 and complimentary parking on site, and it means your show shares the campus with a working hotel.
Convention centre — 4,117 to 6,887 sqm
Scalable, so the hall can be sized to the show.
Citywest Suite — up to 1,997 sqm
Scalable from 650 sqm.
Lakes and Sycamore Suites
1,793 sqm and 1,700 sqm.
Luas on the doorstep
Around 30 minutes to the city centre by Luas.
Event spaces
Several large spaces on one campus rather than a single hall. Which one your show uses sets the footprint.
What to confirm before design
Citywest does not publish ceiling heights or loading-door sizes for its halls, so we get them from your organiser's exhibitor manual and the venue before any design work starts. For a tall stand, a double-deck or rigged signage, that is the first question we ask rather than the last.
On a hotel campus, delivery routes and build-up times are worth confirming with the organiser early, alongside the usual stand height, RAMS and structural sign-off requirements in the manual.
Planning a Citywest build from the UK
With parking on site and the N7 alongside, the road leg is simple. The crossing and the missing hall specs are what need planning.
Get the hall heights
Confirm ceiling height and door sizes with the organiser before drawing.
Plan backwards from the sailing
Freight crosses the Irish Sea, so the schedule starts from the ferry booking, not the build-up day.
Work to the exhibitor manual
Stand height, RAMS and structural sign-off are set by your organiser, not the venue.
Design it to travel
A modular build can serve your UK and Irish shows without being rebuilt.
Why exhibitors choose us for Citywest
We design and manufacture in our own workshop in Redditch and install across the UK, Ireland and Europe. For a Citywest build that means the crew that builds your NEC stand builds your Dublin one — no handover to a local contractor you have never met.
We are ESSA members. A full build covers design, manufacture, transport, installation, on-site management and dismantle, along with the documentation your organiser asks for. Because we build to travel, the same stand can work across a UK and Irish show calendar, and we can store it between shows. See our other Irish exhibition venues.
