When it comes to the student nightlife in Dublin, you are in for a treat since there are endless options of pubs & bars and night clubs to choose from. If ‘pubbing’ is more of your scene then you will be happy to know that there a shocking 666 licensed pubs in Dublin alone, so you can take your pick! We recommend Captain America’s, Porterhouse Bar, The Workman’s Club and Howl at the Moon for cheap deals for students on drink and food. Now if you’re looking to just dance the night away we recommend Lillie’s Bordello, Mother and The Grand Social nightclubs. The Cobblestone, Whelan’s and Button Factory host some excellent venues for buzzing live music. If you are in the mood for some standup comedy or even drama, see what performances are on at Vicar Street.
