Project Overview

Wave Dynamics were appointed as Acoustic Consultants for Flight Club Dublin, a live‑entertainment venue located within Dublin city centre in the Dawson Hotel. The development involved the fit‑out of a high‑energy social darts venue incorporating gaming areas, bars, food service and late‑night operation, all within a sensitive urban environment with nearby residential and commercial receptors.
The project required careful consideration of entertainment noise, music breakout, customer activity noise and building fabric performance, alongside compliance with Dublin City Council requirements and relevant Irish and UK acoustic guidance. A key challenge was balancing the client’s operational needs and branding requirements with the protection of surrounding noise‑sensitive premises.
Our Scope of Services Included:
  • Acoustic input at design stage to inform spatial layout and building fabric strategy
  • Assessment and control of entertainment and amplified music noise
  • Review and specification of sound insulation performance for walls, floors and ceilings
  • Advice on noise mitigation measures to control breakout to adjoining uses
  • Preparation of acoustic documentation to support licensing and regulatory compliance
Wave Dynamics worked closely with the design team to develop practical, buildable acoustic solutions that aligned with the architectural vision and programme, while ensuring robust noise control for both internal and external environments. The venue was successfully delivered with appropriate acoustic performance, enabling the operator to achieve compliance while maintaining the intended customer experience.
