New Years Eve
Helen at 15:07:24 on 23 Aug 2005
Does anyone know the places to go in Dublin on New Years Eve and how we get tickets. Have a rubbish new year every year so thought we'd try Dublin because we haven't been before. If anyone knows anything can you email me.
Thanks x

Helen, I'd be really interested to know what sort of response, if any, you've had to this. Have just moved back to Dublin after 10 years and a load of friends are coming over from the UK to spend New Years Eve here.... I don't know what to do/where to go! Most people I speak to who live here say you're better to get out of Dublin for NY??!

Well ladies it seems we're all in the same boat. I've just moved here from Australia (6 weeks ago) and have a friend from London coming over to 'hit the town' with us on NYE and I don't have a clue where to take him! I'll keep my eyes on this site to see if anyone replies!

i live in dublin but never go there for new years eve. have heard sprit odeon and lillies are the spots to hit. sure if you google them youll get info on tickets. Beware though taxi's are a novelty in dublin on a night out!!
Re: New Years Eve
Lou at 14:42:24 on 10 Dec 2006
If you wanna check out Ticketmaster.ie it will show u a detailed list of all events on, on NYE. Stick in the date you wanna go out and u can purchase a ticket. Not all places require tickets. If your not into any of tat the best place to go is around Temple Bar in dublin city it is full of bars and clubs tat open late, but as Ann said you will be lucky to get a taxi outta dublin that night or any night as a matter of fact(",)Hope every one has a good night wat ever you do

Hi All,
I'm just promoting our jazz trio for NYE. We're playing in Harris bar, Limerick city, which is a great spot. For €30, there's a champagne reception at 9pm, canapes and finger food, us, the band (vocals, piano and violin) playing our unique blend of jazz/funk until 12, and then a DJ from 12-2am.
I think there might be a reduction for tickets bought beforehand- try ringing Harris bar on 061 312600 or me, Imogen on 087 2365070.
Whatever you do, have a great night, and if you do join us, come and say hi- I'm the fiddler.

Hi,
Friends of mine have booked a night at Temple Spa down in Westmeath. Apparently just got Bridgestone award for the restaurant so they've brought in a high-calibre jazz duo to celebrate NYE in style. Me and my lady are considering also. Sounds like something with a bit of style. Dublin is to be avoided at all costs!!!

New Years Eve
Molly at 09:54:49 on 27 Dec 2006
Just a quick warning for Kyle in Dublin on the 1st most if not all pubs & shops close unlike in england so i wouldn't be planning a mad one then. As someone who has live here for all of life (25 years) I find it a let down most years because you get ripped on the door charges and in the city centre they always seem to put the prices up but if you do come try get somewhere in town to stay as Ann said above they are like gold dsk most weekends never mind just New Years Eve. Hope you enjoy your stay if you come!

Hey, im from belfast and my friends and I took a trip up to Dublin last week. We had no idea where to go out but ended up in a music bar type place called Whelans. It was amazing craic and all the people there were lovely. I would guess it would be a good bet for new years.
Re: New Years Eve
Roisin at 00:27:58 on 31 Dec 2006
good places are Tripod and crawdaddy, they are on harcourt street for dance music.
rogue bar on the quays is also good, just ask a taxi driver...
other than that, the vilage isnt bad, its also around harcourt street- actually , theres LOADS of places to go on that street and the one paralell, Camedon Street- D2 for fun rn'b, whelans as mentioned is very down to earth and on the same street. good luck

Hello all
Very nice to see this type of homepage where people are helping eachother out :)
Me and my girlfriend are going to Dublin to celebrate New Years Eve 2007, and we are looking for a good restaurant and some kind of party, so we can have a nice evening.
Can you recommend any good restaurants that aren't closed on New Years Eve? I have tried calling some restaurants, but they all said they were closed unfortunately :(
We are thinking of going to "Brutus Gold's Lovetrain - Special New Years Eve Disco Party" which is being held at Spirit Dublin. (It can be found here:
http://www.discoverireland.com/dk/ireland-events/listings/?fid=ENT_C2389101)
Any of you know anything about this party, and would you rather recommend us something else?

For me, the best place to be on New Year's eve from 11.30 pm onwards, is at Christchurch - everyone is there for the ringing of the bells and singing Auld Lang Syne - best fish n chips are right there too!!!or if you are at Trinity College - look straight up and it's at the top of George's St. Map;

Have you found something nice?
I got those links about clubs that do something special that night:
http://www.indublin.ie/ID_Favourites/New_Years_Eve_Ideas.aspx
Is it a better plan clubbing or 'pubbing' that special night?
Hey! What if we all meet in a good pub/club? It would be fun! It seems that Niall knows where an international party takes place.
Email me! Cheers

Re: New Years Eve 2007
Ian at 23:06:46 on 25 Dec 2007
all,
you're mad to consider coming to Dublin for NYE. Pubs and Clubs are jam packed, and you will pay extra cover charges to get in! Plus, you'd better know your way around Dublin because chances are you'll be walking back to where you are staying. Its a joke to get a taxi in Dublin that night. Most locals now have house parties.
If you are insistent on coming to Dublin for NYE make sure its a ticketed event and you have a ticket beforehand.
sorry to sound so negative but best that you are pre-warned
Re: New Years Eve 2007
aoife at 20:26:41 on 26 Dec 2007
The nitelink (bus service)is running on n.y.e starts at 12.30am till 4.30 goes to most area's in Dublin it's only 4 euro if you are a tourist more then likely you will be staying in the city center, so u can walk not far!! unlike ian making it out to be that bad to get around! some places have tickets like D2, Copper face Jacks, around 10/20euro you get a glass of champagne at midnight!
I'm not sure where I am heading myself!I no I'll be in the city center! can't say I'm onto temple bar that much! I'm in Oz next year so I want a great new years this year!
us dubs I'm afraid find it just as hard to think of somewhere to go! weekends I go to the Palace Camden St, D2 or Odeon (but odeon it's turned into more of a dance music place) Harcourt St, Fitzsimon's in temple bar! had good nights in all of these places.
I like the idea of an international party sounds fun!??
p.s i hate young crowds in Redz or 21s Qbar on d'olier street.
over 18's usually means it's u18's over 21's means under 21's
I'm 23!! lol

There is plenty to do on New Years in Dublin.
If you head to Temple Bar you will be sure to find a lively busy pub and you have Fitzsimons in Temple Bar aswell which is a night club/pub.
You will find a night club or a pub on almost every street. Make sure you go in early around 7 or later if your not sure ask a bouncer who will be standing at a nightclub or pub.

Re: New Years Eve 2007
Elaine at 19:35:31 on 29 Dec 2007
NYE is always busy but that means that it should be a great night wherever you end up! As pointed out already Nitelinks are running so forget taxis, forget the bahumbuggers,'tis true that Dubs like to travel elswhere for NYE but only in the same way as anyone not from Dublin travels here. Advice is go out early, forget dinner, restaurants will be fully booked by now. Grab an Eddie Rockets or something en route to the pub. Temple Bar is tourist central (nothing wrong with that), Dawson St has a few (wannabe) swanky bars like Ron Blacks, Samsara & Cafe En Seine, with Dandelion around the corner, but if old man bars are more your scene, try Kehoes (good luck getting in!), The Dawson Lounge (smallest Pub in Dublin), O'Donoghues, Doheny & Nesbitts, Bruxelles, or O'Neills. All centrally located anyway... Have fun!!

Re: New Years Eve 2007
Jackson at 12:18:58 on 31 Dec 2007
All these Dubliners seem to be so negative about New Years. I think for us tourists or expats simply being in a new city is novelty enough for a good night out. I have a few Aussie mates coming over from Belfast and Dublin and I am thinking we can just cruise round the town, drink til we drop and just get all out rowdy. Lucky I live a 5 minute walk from town though so taxis are not an issue. The idea of going out for New Years in my home city back in oz is very dull but I'm sure you Dubliners would love it, and vice versa. Will have to see how the night pans out. I think the trick with any New Years is not to have huge expectations.

I'm confident and can strike up a conversation with anybody, so somewhere where the people are banterous would be great if anyone has any recomendations?

I live in Dublin, and go out once if not twice a week in the city..
If your looking for a decent spot with friendly people and cool music go wo whelans on wexford st
If your looking forregular pop tunes and a laugh, go to Flannerys bar on wexford street(get there early though) and copper face jacks on harcourt street, two mins walk away.
My advice is too kepp away from temple bar as its a rip off an a tourist trap. feel free to email me and id be happy to give you advice.

As a Dub living here over 40 years, it is an expensive party spot. Best bet would be go to Christchurch for the Bells at 12, prior to that hang around Temple Bar as it aint that far a walk to Christ Church Cathederal. Be careful of the local thugs mind

It all depends what kind of music you like, Tripod is the best for house lovers. I would say AVOID Coppers and Flannerys as they are always jammed and play dire cheese (think 500 miles and eye of the tiger all night long)..

Doolin is fantastic for New Year. Great Craic in the pubs, good restaurants. We have holiday homes that sleep 6 available for €399 for a week

In my opinion Dublin is one of the worst places u can find for spending new year's eve. As a capital of european country it's a shame that there is nothing organized here! Every other big city - Berlin, London, Paris...etc.. has fireworks and concerts. Here it's just dead! Just pubs and restaurants! Boring!! I will defenitelly not spend another new year's eve here. It's a waste of time!

Are there any fireworks in Dublin on NYE? We're heading over and didn't want to go to a bar on the night itsef just hang outside; something similar to the fireworks on the Thames perhaps?
Any advice or websites I'd appreciate it.

Hi there,
Anyone know of a good new years venue or ball type party in Limerick/Clare/Tipperary location.

As far as I know there's some fireworks but I haven't been around Dublin for a while! Best bet is to book into a hostel in the city centre, they're very cheap, 15-20 a night and go out into Temple Bar or around Camden street or anywhere in the city centre really, the place has plenty of pubs with lots happening in them and most you wont have to pay into or need tickets....just get out early.... no matter where you go you'll have some fun (but yeah the taxis are scarce so be prepared to walk or bring flat shoes in the hand bags ladies :-) )
