Temple Bar is also a key destination with its lively atmosphere and tourist appeal. Here, you can find high-capacity venues like Buskers On The Ball. For something a little different, the South-East Inner City and South-West Inner City have well-reviewed bars and distilleries like BrewDog Outpost and Stillgarden Distillery, which can host both private events and experiential gatherings.

Most hire fees include exclusive use of the space, bar staff, basic AV equipment, and seating. Many venues, especially those with a minimum spend or per-person model, also provide tailored food and drink packages. For example, venues like 9 Below or The Glasshouse Bar often include cocktail service or bespoke menus in their rates, while larger venues offer full bar access and custom event support.
