Dublin

Stag Do Ideas

"Dublin is easily accessible through budget airlines that fly from the majority of UK airports - making it really easy for a lot of groups. However, ticket prices tend to rise as the travel date approaches, so it’s best to book your flights early to secure the best deals."

"The Harcourt Street area is best for accommodation as it’s a short 15 minute walk to the Temple Bar area, and still offers a great vibe with trendy bars and vibrant clubs. This will help keep the cost for the group down whilst still offering a great location."

"For traditional pubs and live music, stay near Temple Bar, or head to Harcourt Street for trendy bars and vibrant clubs. However, be aware that some accommodations may refuse stag groups. Rest assured, all hostels, hotels, and apartments listed on Chillisauce welcome stag parties."

"Temple Bar is a must-visit, but for a more authentic experience, be sure to explore local gems along Camden Street and around O'Connell Street. These areas offer a mix of traditional pubs and lively spots with a mix of locals and tourists. We also organise fantastic private and public guided pub crawls that ensure a fun-filled night. Our tours take you to the best pubs, highlight key hotspots, and make it easy for you to enjoy the night without any hassle."

For a well-rounded stag do in Dublin, be sure to mix in some exciting daytime activities. The Guinness Storehouse Tour is an iconic experience, where you can learn about Ireland’s most famous pint and enjoy panoramic views of the city from the Gravity Bar. If you're after something more interactive, a Beer Bike Tour is a great way to sightsee while pedalling through Dublin’s streets with a drink in hand. For a high-energy, laughter-filled activity, try Bubble Football or Paintballing—both offer a chance to get competitive, cure some hangovers, and create lasting memories. These activities are not only fun but also perfect for building up an appetite before hitting the pubs in the evening!

"The Guinness Storehouse Tour is a must do while you’re in Dublin with great value for money. During the evening, a bar crawl is always a great option to make sure you are going to the best places. Highly recommend Oliver St. John Gogarty as a great pub option to avoid the mainstream ‘tourist trap’ pubs like Temple Bar. It’s always a good idea to add a non-drinking activity to break up the weekend as well - try bubble football or paintball to get the competitive and fun side of the weekend."

"Dublin’s nightlife is legendary, but it can be on the expensive side, especially over the weekend. To help you make the most of your night out without breaking the bank, we offer fantastic packages where you can pre-book drinks in advance. Options include everything from beer buckets to whiskey tasting experiences, giving you the chance to enjoy the best of Dublin’s pub scene while saving on costs. These packages are a great way to ensure a fun, stress-free night for your group, with drinks already sorted and no need to queue at the bar."

"Try Irish Whiskey Blending at the Roe & Co Distillery. It’s an interactive activity where you can dive into the history of Irish whiskey and enjoy a tasting session—perfect for whiskey enthusiasts looking to add something special and hands-on to their weekend."

"Dublin’s nightlife is vibrant and can quickly become chaotic, so it’s essential to have a solid plan in place. Make sure everyone in your group knows the itinerary, including when and where you’ll be heading, with enough time for meals, recovery, and plenty of pub stops along the way. With Chillisauce, you’ll have a dedicated stag planner to guide you in choosing the best options for your group, ensuring you don’t miss out on the top spots and best stag ideas in Dublin. You'll also get access to our Members Hub, where you can easily access all your plans and bookings at any time. Plus, our 24/7 phone support is always available if any issues come up or someone gets separated from the group. With a little organisation, you can make the most of Dublin’s buzzing nightlife while keeping everything running smoothly."

"Take the Airlink Express Bus (Route 747). It’s a direct, affordable, and convenient option, with frequent departures that take you straight into Dublin city centre, typically in around 30-40 minutes. For a more streamlined and stress-free arrival, Chillisauce’s private transfers are an excellent option. These transfers keep the group together, ensuring everyone travels comfortably and directly to your Temple Bar accommodation without any hassle."
