Spring has sprung in Dublin- technically speaking of course, you can’t tell from the weather.
After months of darkness and rain, the sun is due to start rising again in the coming weeks, bringing with it some of our favourite Dublin Bucket List features!
From live rugby, to St Patrick’s Day and the myriads of bank holidays heading our way, here is our comprehensive list of the best things to do, see and experience in Dublin during the Spring
2. The Heritage Pub Trail
With Spring comes sun, and with sun comes the promise of less biblical rain. The perfect weather conditions for the Heritage Pub Trail! Grab your friends, don your rain jackets and discover some of Dublin’s most historic public houses. Step back into the 1770’s in The Stag’s Head, sample Ireland’s rarest gins in The Gin Palace, and enjoy traditional craic agus ceol in The Quay’s, Temple Bar. There is something for everyone on the Heritage Pub Trail, and finishers are rewarded with a one-of-a-kind prize.
3. The St. Patrick’s Day Parade
A Dublin classic!
If you’re lucky enough to be staying in Dublin over the St. Patrick’s Day Weekend, the parade is a rite of passage (and its free!). Watch as floats and performers embody different aspects of Irish culture, from the delightful (Irish dancers) to the macabre (banshees, Bram Stoker and Banbha…). If you’re craving a pint and a feed post-parade, you’re in luck. The Arlington Bar is the first bar beside the parade starting point, offering paradegoers delicious traditional and modern Irish cuisine, and the creamiest Guinness north of the river.
4. Vintage Tea Trips
See Dublin from a vintage double decker bus while sipping tea, feeling fancy and enjoying a sumptuous selection of seasonal snacks! The Vintage Tea Trips bus has fast become a Dublin staple and is easily the prettiest way to see the city. With the prodigal sun shining, Vintage Tea Trips is the perfect way to spend a Spring afternoon in the city.
5. The Teelings Distillery
Boasting a delicious array of authentic Irish whiskeys, the Teelings Distillery is a fantastic day out for the whiskey lover in your life.
Learn about distilling, malting and ageing Ireland’s liquid gold, and taste your way through decades of expertise. Not a whiskey fan? Their professional bartenders are well versed in the art of the delicious cocktail. The Teelings Distillery tour, followed by dinner and authentic Irish dancing at Celtic Nights sounds like our ideal day in Dublin’s Fair City.
