The British and Irish Lions Tour, 2005. Mayor Kerry Prendergast said "It’s going to be the biggest celebration of rugby and fun the Capital has ever seen. It’s a huge logistical exercise and Council staff are working around the clock to ensure readyness. This will turn Courtenay Place into a 24 hour entertainment zone – the Council is organising live music throughout the day to help people get into the party mood.
