Whats On In D8 March

What's on in D8: March Edition

March in D8 might bring the first whispers of spring, but it’s bursting with energy and celebration. As we shake off winter and head into longer days, the neighbourhood is buzzing with festivals, parades, gigs, workshops, cultural events, and plenty of St. Patrick’s themed festivities, giving everyone reasons to gather, dance, cheer, or just step out for some craic. 🌈🍀🎶⚽

From massive parades and trad sessions to live concerts, theatre shows, community walks, family-friendly activities, museum events, and local gigs in spots like Vicar Street, The Liberties, and beyond, there’s something happening almost every day, whether you’re gearing up for the big national holiday, or simply looking for a reason to explore around the corner. ❤️🇮🇪🎨

Got something coming up in or around D8? Send us the details and we’ll be glad to include it 🙌.
