The only negative side of Culture Night in Dublin is having to much choice as to what to do. There are literally HUNDREDS of options, the vast majority of which are free.
There will be information booklets available to pick up throughout the evening but to makes things that much easier we've compiled a handy list of some of the events that are well worth checking out.
Take a look:
