Vicar Street

Live Entertainment | Your night-out plan

An ice bucket

“Good music. Big laughs. Unforgettable nights.”

Fancy a night out that doesn't involve hopping from pub to pub? Get yourself over to Vicar Street and see what's on.

This well-known Dublin venue hosts everything from live music and comedy to other stage shows. Depending on when you're in town, you could catch an Irish artist, an international act or a comedian who has the whole room in stitches.

Located on Thomas Street in Dublin 8, Vicar Street is a great starting point for exploring the Liberties, one of the city's most characterful neighbourhoods. It's an area with plenty of history and a strong connection to Dublin's brewing and commercial past.

Check the events calendar before your stay, as performances and tickets vary. Found a show you like? Get organised early, especially if it's a popular act.

Hostel hack: Ask your fellow travellers if anyone fancies joining you. Shared gigs, comedy nights and spontaneous plans are some of the easiest ways to meet people when you're travelling. One minute you're strangers at breakfast; the next, you're singing along at a gig together.
