The hotels have been booked, babysitters secured, but the Number One Party Anthem will no longer sound through the grounds of Marlay Park.
Yesterday afternoon, the Arctic Monkeys took to social media to cancel their sold out Dublin show just one day before it was meant to take place. As fans speculate about the reasons for cancellation and watch eagle eyed to see whether the band go ahead with their headline slot at Glastonbury, we thought it fitting to round up a few other events happening in Dublin tonight if you find yourself at a loose end. There's drag bingo, electro and theatre - hopefully something to suit all tastes.
Let's get into it.

Arctic Monkeys Party
