Dublin’s Rock Route, Ireland
Dublin, Ireland, boasts an exciting music scene, evident in the legendary venues where both local and international bands have made history. The Irish capital is home to bands and artists like U2, Sinead O’Connor, Thin Lizzy, and The Script. Music in Dublin is a passionate journey.
In addition to the concert you’re planning to attend, if you have a few extra days in Dublin, consider taking a rock tour of the city. The 3Olympia Theatre is one of the historic venues, perfect for more intimate shows. If you prefer a bar with live music, it’s worth checking out Whelan’s, housed in a building that dates back to the 17th century.
A tour of the historic Windmill Lane Recording Studios to learn more about U2 and a visit to the statue of the beloved Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy should also be on your musical itinerary.
Vinyl lovers can visit Tower Records, a well-known store famous for its selection of records.
