The festive season is just around the corner and we’re making our plans on how to celebrate.
And one thing we can’t ignore is ringing in the new year.
This year’s New Year’s Festival isn’t one to be missed!
Ring in 2026 in style as New Year’s Festival Dublin, Ireland’s biggest New Year celebration, has announced its highly anticipated return!

Iconic Dublin venues, Dublin Castle and Meeting House Square, will host a thrilling lineup of events.
The Countdown Concert will be headlined by Inhaler, so you’ll definitely be ringing in the new year right.
