Button will line out on the docklands grid, as part of the Bavaria City Racing Dublin event, which takes place on Sunday, 3 June, next year.
Organisers say the track begins at the Convention Centre, continues along Customs House Quay before crossing Butt Bridge, chicanes at D’Olier Street, past College Green and the Central Bank on Dame Street before reaching the chequered flag on O’Connell Bridge.
Former F1 team owener, Eddie Jordan, who is involved in the event said: “I’m hugely excited about Bavaria City Racing Dublin, this is something spectacular, something you’ve never witnessed before and I for one can’t wait.”
Bavaria City Racing Dublin is a free public event and organisers say they expect 150,000 to line the streets.
