Who We Are
Love Temple Bar
Since 2003, we have provided a platform, a forum and most importantly a voice for the businesses, cultural and voluntary sectors who make up the ‘city within a city’ that is Temple Bar.
The Temple Bar Company is much more than a business association, we give voice to Dublin’s most talkative district!
We exist to promote the many and varied delights of Dublin’s irrepressible Cultural Quarter. Our brief is to put the area’s best face forward and we do it by ensuring that Temple Bar is kept clean and that the atmosphere is always safe, fun and accessible for all who live, work and visit the area.
The Temple Bar Company carries out an array of projects from TV show programming, to live music festivals in support of all in the arts, trade and commerce, and to maintain this unique district as Ireland’s most vibrant tourism, business and cultural hub.

TradFest
The country's largest celebration of Irish music, culture and the arts takes places in January every year and has become an unmissable week as part of Dublin's annual event calendar!
We proudly run this festival in the Temple Bar area where it was born 20 years ago, as well as right across County Dublin.
St. Patrick's Day
You already know, 'tis a pretty big deal here in Dublin ☘️
Following the festive period and TradFest in late January, Paddy's Day is the next big party to hit the capital city and here in the heart of it all, you better grab a stool at the bar early!
The parade doesn't travel down the cobbles of Temple Bar but the area shows up and shows out every year, bringing huge crowds from all over the world and the businesses of Temple Bar party all weekend long.
