About
A public event square in Temple Bar, tucked between Eustace Street and Sycamore Street. It’s an open pedestrian space rather than a contained venue, so what it’s like depends on what’s happening that day. Families often pass through for the Saturday food market, stop to watch a daytime performance, or include it as part of a city-centre wander near the Irish Film Institute. The square was designed specifically for outdoor events, with a built-in stage area, projection booth and large retractable umbrellas (not always in use). It suits children who are comfortable in busy urban spaces rather than those looking for play equipment or structured activities.
- Purpose-built outdoor performance space with stage, screen and projection booth
- Large retractable umbrellas designed to shelter audiences during events
- Regular use as a cultural events space including markets, screenings and performances
- Central Temple Bar location beside the Irish Film Institute and other cultural venues
