Size Doesn’t Matter

Viking Vibes

Did you know Dublin was once a Viking settlement? Yep. Norse warriors settled there in the 9^th century, laying the groundwork for the city’s epic history.

Youth Central

Dublin isn’t just young at heart—it’s officially the youngest city in Europe! With nearly half the population under 25, there’s a youthful energy around every corner.

Bridge Goals

Hold onto your hats—O’Connell Bridge isn’t your average crossing. It’s the only bridge in Europe with the same width as its length! Built back in 1863, it’s a true Dublin icon.

Lost in Translation

Ever wonder what Dublin’s name means in Irish? You’ll see “Baile Átha Cliath” on the signs, which translates to “Town of the Hurdled Ford.” And the more widely known “Dubh Linn”? That’s Irish for “Black Pool,” a nod to its Viking past.

Though they have moved far beyond the Irish capital these days, there are plenty of interesting spots to check out in Dublin if you want to experience pieces of the band’s history. Here are three must-see spots for U2 fans in the city.

The Project Arts Theatre

Just down the street from the Temple Bar in the city’s lively nightlife hub is the Project Arts Theatre, a small venue where U2 played frequently during their early days. Drummer The Edge stated, “There was a huge level of excitement amongst those who were cognizant of what was going on in musical terms,” proving that U2 always had a special “it” factor.

The Little Museum of Dublin

One of Dublin’s most fascinating museums is the cozy and wonderful Little Museum, which has a whole room and exhibition dedicated to the city’s most famous band. Here, you will find posters, rare photographs, and all kinds of memorabilia from the band’s illustrious career.

The Clarence Hotel

On Wellington Quay alongside the River Liffey is The Clarence Hotel, one of Dublin’s best places to stay. It is also special for U2 fans, as this is the place where the band used to hang out in its early days and is now owned by Bono and The Edge.

History lovers will find plenty to do in the Irish capital, as well. Add these three historical places to your Dublin agenda if you are interested in learning more about its history.

Kilmainham Gaol

This former prison located just outside of Dublin’s center has a past that is equal parts sad and fascinating. Built at the end of the 18th century, this center saw the imprisonment of many Irish independence fighters until 1924 and can now be visited as an interpretative center to learn more about the country’s turbulent history.

EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum

If there is anything that Ireland is known-for globally, it is probably the huge amounts of immigrants that it has shipped to countries around the world. You can learn more about the economic struggles and famines that led the Irish to move elsewhere at this fantastic museum, which is nearly brand-new and utilizes interactive digital technology.

Trinity College

The most important academic institution in Ireland is Trinity College, which is hosted on a beautiful and historic campus in the center of the city. Established in 1592, you can check out historical buildings such as its Library, whose famous “Long Room” hosts one of the last remaining copies of the 1916 Proclamation of the Irish Republic.
