Possibly one of the most famous Irish celebrations around the world, St. Patrick’s Day in Dublin is an experience unlike any other. Taking place in March, this Dublin festival sees the streets of the capital lined with party-goers over the long weekend. The main parade is held on Sunday morning and creates an electric atmosphere that is charged with excitement. This festival isn’t all fun and games though. It honours one of the most important patron saints of Ireland, Saint Patrick, on the day of his death.
A must-do when it comes to Dublin events, this celebration takes place in honour of the Irish writer James Joyce, the author of the world-renowned novel Ulysses. On this day, the city is full of energy, with walking tours, public talks, high tea events and bar crawls taking place throughout the capital.
Whether you’re a musician or simply like to listen, this music festival is one of the best in Ireland, featuring local and international artists who put on world-class, energetic performances.
