Wheel of Dublin

Wheel of Dublin, Ferris wheel in North Wall, Dublin, Ireland.

The Wheel of Dublin, also called Revolver, was a transportable Ferris wheel in the Dublin Docklands, North Wall. It weighed 350 tons, had 42 capsules and a capacity of 336 passengers. Reports gave its height as 60 metres when installed and 53 metres when dismantled and moved to York.

The ferris wheel opened in 2010 and served for over a year as a landmark for the developing harbor area. After closing in 2011 it was dismantled and transported to a new location in York.

The wheel was commissioned by Harry Crosbie and run by World Tourist Attractions, the operator behind observation wheels in other cities. Its alternative name, Revolver, referred to the same structure in the Dublin Docklands. The installation stood in the North Wall area, part of the docklands redevelopment north of the River Liffey.

The wheel stood in the North Wall area of the Dublin Docklands, in the Point Village development beside the O2 Arena. It was commissioned by Harry Crosbie and run by World Tourist Attractions. It operated for 16 months, from July 2010 to November 2011, before being dismantled and moved to York.

The wheel weighed 350 tons and had 42 capsules with a total capacity of 336 passengers. Commissioned by Harry Crosbie and run by World Tourist Attractions, it was called Revolver as well as the Wheel of Dublin. When it was moved to York, reports gave its height as 53 metres rather than the 60 metres announced at installation.
