Dublin’s Best LGBTQ+ Spots:
- The George – Opening its doors over 36 years ago, The George has been heavily involved in the Irish LGBTQ community from its inception. With drink deals, daily entertainment and drags shows it’s the perfect place to dance the night away. Featuring nationally recognised drag acts, an award winning venue, huge dancefloor and day-time bar, The George takes you from the afternoon to the madness of after midnight without skipping a beat.
- Pantibar – it’s famously run by the legendary Panti Bliss, one of Ireland’s most beloved drag queens. The bar has a warm and inclusive energy, attracting a diverse crowd who come to enjoy great drinks, music, and often live drag performances.
- Street 66 – It’s a perfect spot for those looking to have a great time with an unpretentious, fun-loving crowd, and it’s particularly popular for its music, ranging from pop to alternative hits. If you’re looking for a welcoming space with great tunes and a lively atmosphere, Street 66 is a must-visit!
- Penny Lane – Owned by the same iconic drag queen as PantiBar, Pennylane offers a lightly more relaxed (but equally queer and fun) alternative to the other LGBTQ+ bars and clubs in the area. A stylish interior and chilled out vibe make Pennylane perfect for drinks with friends or a hangout after work. You can start your evening here if you’re feeling sophisticated before heading across the road to PantiBar for a dance.
- Mother Club – Mother is an old-school club night for our disco-loving LGBTQ+ family & their friends. Mother is also a main player in creating magical moments at some of Ireland’s biggest festivals, including their own Pride Block Party at the National Museum of Ireland each June.
