Dublin · EVENING EXPERIENCES
The good evening experiences fill up well before the weekend does. Below: the 10 to book early, what each includes, and where they genuinely differ.
Belvedere Irish Nights pairs a 3-course Irish dinner with an intimate live step-dance show, music, singing, and audience participation in Dublin.
“What a great way to kick off our week in Ireland! The food was fantastic and the music and dancers were incredible! Loved the set up so that all seats had a great view. Highly recommend!”
One-hour open-top Dublin night bus with a live guide. See Temple Bar, Dublin Castle, Christ Church Cathedral, and more for $30.
“Our tour guide (Paul?) was brilliant, learnt a lot on our journey and stopped at the right times for us to get photos. Was refreshing to be in an open top bus & the speakers were loud and clear. Thoroughly enjoyed”
Skip the Line at Taylors Three Rock in Dublin for a 4-course Irish dinner and a 2-hour music and dance show, plus guaranteed seating.
“Fantastic experience! Great food and atmosphere. Talented one of a kind performance. Lots of laughs and so much fun! I would 100% recommend Taylor’s Three Rock night show”
Dublin’s Merry Ploughboy Irish Night mixes a lively pub show, stepdancing, and optional three-course dinner for about 3.5 hours.
“Outstanding! Music and singing were incredible, especially the artist playing the uilleann pipes, dancing was excellent! A must do visiting Dublin!!”
Sunset cruise from Howth to Dublin Bay with live captain commentary and Ireland's Eye wildlife views. Photo-friendly, wheelchair accessible.
“I loved the experience! I highly recommend it!!! I've been living here for 3 years and I thought it was incredible, congratulations to the entire trip team, I was very well received and they were all very attentive and kind. I want to thank the sailor immensely, I got confused and bought a ticket just for me and even with this mistake he let my boyfriend go on the trip and was extremely understanding, thank you very much for that!!!”
One-hour open-top Dublin night bus tour with live narration and major landmarks illuminated, a fast way to get oriented after dark.
“The driver coped really well with the unexpected huge crowds of people lining the streets. His commentary was interesting.”
A classic Dublin dinner and traditional show at Merry Ploughboys, with Irish music, dancing, and audience sing-alongs, about 3 hours 40 minutes.
“The sing alongs and music were fantastic. The dancers were excellent. Great show. The food was very delicious. I highly recommend this as a memorable night out.”
A guided night walk in Glendalough for sunset wildlife, monastic ruins by headlamp, and stargazing in County Wicklow.
“Both guides but especially Elena were marvolous. Perhaps start earlier so the pace is not so fast and more time to enjoy the views.”
A 2-hour Spanish guided night pub tour through Dublin’s Temple Bar and beyond, with beer lore, pub culture, and Dublin after dark.
“Everything was great with Stefany, she was super friendly and made the tour very enjoyable.”
Sunset SUP in Malahide, Dublin, with a small-group lesson on safe paddling, self-rescue skills, and a calm estuary at golden hour.
“Really enjoyed our paddle. As total beginners, we were a tiny bit nervous. But after meeting Alex, after a safety briefing, we were totally relaxed. Great location in shallow water. Great fun, we'll be back again. Eamonn and Catherine”
Every kind of day this city can send you on, and the best of each.
