We live in hope and have booked a long weekend in Dublin, mainly to take in a couple of shows, one of which was cancelled from last December.

We're looking for suggestions of places to go and things to do.

We have been before so have been to a few bars in Temple, the Guinness factory and Trinity College library.

What else would you recommend?

Jameson distillery, any of the museums, any coastal walk is nice but you would have to warp up.

Hopefully your gig is still on at that stage

Depending on what date in december a walk around town with all the Christmas lights up would be nice

If the weather is crap a trip on the coastal route train called the dart can be nice

You can either go northside and walk around Howth pier or Southside which has the nicer views and walk on Dún Laoghaire pier

Viking tours are a laugh.

Oh that's a pity. Used to take friends visiting on them and always enjoyed it

I’m not sure they meant next December. They had a show cancelled last month. Maybe they did mean the one coming but it’s quite ambiguous.

Would be surprised tho if anyone would book a weekend that far away

If a gig was cancelled last December it'll be down for next December

Thanks for the suggestions.

Yes the gig was for Dec 2020 and is now Dec 2021.

Booking a weekend so far in advance just gave us hope of better things to come

Blackrock

The Guinness brewery tour

A rooftop tour of Croke Park is well worth the money

If you're into history, how about a trip round Kilmainham gaol or Dublin castle?
