Dublin is Europe's most popular destination with travelling stag and hen parties. Riding on the back of the roaring success of the ‘Celtic Tiger’ economy, Dublin in the new millennium is a city on the rise and rise. Business in many sectors is booming and the city overflows with tourists, who flock to the ‘party capital of Europe’ to sample the infamous Irish craic (that’s fun to the rest of you).
This vibrant, fun-loving city on the River Liffey is full of atmospheric pubs and clubs and the streets echo with the ghosts of artistic luminaries such as James Joyce and W B Yeats. The city is a popular destination throughout the year, with many festivals, cultural and religious events and sporting fixtures.
Sightseeing should not be confined to the Guinness storehouse! Other highlights include the early medieval Christchurch Cathedral (Dublin’s oldest building), the cobbled streets of Temple Bar, Phoenix Park (Europe’s largest urban park), the National Gallery of Ireland and the treasures of the National Museum of Ireland, and Trinity College, Ireland’s oldest university. Or have a look at Last Night of Freedom's Dublin Stag weekends.
