Tired of doing the same old thing for you or for your loved ones' birthdays?
Yep, us too.
We're always keen to try out new things - and we know you are, too. So, we've compiled a list of the most random, most unusual and most gas things you should get up to for a birthday in Dublin.
Gwan. Be gas.
Affectionately known as 'folf', this great day out is fun for all ages and all fitness levels.
We promise.
The boat that keeps on giving. This gorgeous canal boat boasts some of the best food in Dublin, with some truly killer views.
Just make sure you're friends don't get sea sick...
AKA the funnest place on Earth. And imagine how much dinner you'll deserve after all that jumping?!
Top tip: Bring your enemies and watch them tumble.
The best way to see the city and dine on scones at the same time. Sure don't you love multi-tasking?!
And yes, they are as utterly bonkers as you'd imagine.
We've written about these guys before, but we just can't convey how great these guys are. €60 for a whole night of grazing and wine tasting.
Also a way to find out about restaurants you've never visited before. Dreamy.
A view of Dublin you rarely see - and all to yourself.
It's something you'd never do unless there was an occasion, so why not make that occasion now?
Think you need to venture out of Dublin to get your extreme sport fix?
Think again.
The good people at Wakedock will allow you to get stuck into the waters of the Grand Canal, while also perfecting your flips 'n' shit.
Get stuck into one of the more exotic places on the Quays for a change.
Kick off your shoes, gather some mates and bask in the chilled vibes of the trendy spot. If you like drinking tea and chilling out - this one's for you.
Advertised as the most lavish afternoon tea in Dublin, this is an experience only worthy of a special occasion.
While afternoon tea is a treat all on its own, Afternoon Art Tea is something else. Treat yourself to a slice of 19th or 20th century art served on fine china with miniature sweet creations inspired by the work of J.B Yeats, William Scott, Louis Le Brocquy and others.
Incredible.
Our Panti became famous overnight, as did her humble abode, with even the likes of Enda Kenny gracing the Capel Street haunt.
The shows are fantastic and the drinks promos are also deadly - if you're looking for a wild night, this is definitely your best bet.
An intentionally word-of-mouth establishment, this speakeasy is ideal for the suave cocktail drinker of you.
Designed in the style of a 1940s speakeasy, this incredibly cool spot is perfect for retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Although, beware, it is strictly over 23s.
Now, all you have to do is choose.
