Black Bush is an ideal Irish Whiskey for St Patrick's Day

Deciding what to get up to over the Bank Holiday can be stressful. You want to make sure that you're really maximising your time off so it's important to plan ahead.

When it comes to the March Bank Holiday you also have to really get ahead of the curve when it comes to planning due to the influx of visitors Dublin gets across the weekend. 

If you're stuck on how to make the most of it, don't sweat it. We have gathered some of the best events taking place in some of Dublin's most iconic pubs across the weekend. 

While in these fine, long-standing establishments, why not sip on a glass of Bushmills Black Bush whiskey? Founded in 1608 Bushmills has stood the test of time. 

Their Black Bush whiskey blend is a delicious single malt whiskey, matured in the finest Oloroso sherry casks for up to 8 years and blended with a smooth, sweet, small batch-distilled Irish Grain Whiskey.

What's not to love? You can sip on a glass while also knowing you're supporting an Irish-owned business. 

Without any further ado, let's dive into the highlights happening across the St Patricks Day Bank Holiday.

Fair Deal

Across the weekend 

This satirical comedy is writer Una McKevitt's (One Good Turn) world premiere - and it is definitely not to be missed.

It follows Kiera, who is counting down the hours until she can finally break free of family commitments.

Her plan is set until her estranged mother, Sandra, a celebrated interior designer, lands in from Los Angeles.

As Sandra’s demands escalate, the evening swerves into dangerously unexpected territory.

Tickets start at €20 and can be bought from the Abbey Theatre's website.
