We are also looking forward to the new Howth Maritime by Night festival which will see numerous free gigs around Howth all weekend starting from Friday 22nd 🕺

✨ Fresh seafood, live music, family activities & local stalls – all set against the backdrop of Howth’s iconic harbour.

🎶🥂 Whether you’re here for the flavours, the music, the vibes, or a family day out, there’s something for everyone.

📅 Save the date & celebrate the sea with us – it’s one you won’t want to miss!

Howth is the place to be this St. Patrick’s ☘️

From live music in cosy pubs to great beer and whiskeys, guided hikes along the cliffs, foraging experiences, and the Harbour to Harbour walk along our beautiful coastline.

And that’s only a taste of it… there is plenty more going on throughout the village all weekend. Come explore, soak up the atmosphere, and celebrate St. Patrick’s in one of the most beautiful spots on the coast 🌊

One week on from All Shucked Up festival and we’re still on such a high! The Howth Guinness oyster & music festival just gets bigger and better every year 🤍🎵🦪

A big shoutout to all of our local restaurants for being part of it, to the incredible musicians who took part, and to Paul Byrne for creating such a brilliant event.

We’re already counting down until next year!
