Dublin in August: The Grand Finale of Summer

August in Dublin is pure energy. The city comes alive with massive concerts, street markets, and sunsets that seem to last forever. From Latroupe Jacobs Inn, you have all these plans within easy reach, just minutes away on foot or by public transport.

1. A stadium that beats: Robbie Williams at Croke Park

On August 23rd, Robbie Williams arrives with his most ambitious tour yet. Croke Park, Ireland’s largest stadium, will be filled with anthems that have marked generations. Tip: get there early to soak up the pre-show atmosphere and enjoy a pint at one of Drumcondra’s pubs before the concert.

2. Summer markets to bid farewell to the season

Summer in Dublin wraps up in August with its final editions on Parliament Street. Live music, food pop-ups, and local crafts turn the street into an impromptu festival.

3. Evenings of terraces and live music

The last two weeks of August are perfect for hopping between terraces and bars with open-air concerts. Places like The Bernard Shaw or The Grand Social offer special lineups to end the summer on a high note.

4. Latroupe Tip: from concert to comfort in minutes

After the music and the lights, walk or take a night bus back to Jacobs Inn, your base to recharge and keep exploring the city.
