Got any plans for Valentine's Day yet? If not, don't worry - Lovin Dublin's got you covered...
On the most romantic day of the year, Ireland will be playing (and hopefully crushing!) France at "fortress" Aviva. So the French are known for their food and romance, and the Irish ain't that bad at either. But the thing we're best at is having the craic, so why not combine all 3 into a fun soirée at one of Dublin's slickest spots?
Kicking things off at 1pm at House on Leeson Street, there'll be a host of French cocktails as well as Kronenbourg 1664 on the menu (with a complimentary one of each for ticketholders). Apparently Kronenbourg is the most sold French beer in the world - and here we were thinking it was German, but sure you learn something new everyday!
In terms of keeping your tummies happy we'll have a French market buffet-style with loads of lovely French grub included in your ticket. There'll be fromage, meats, fruit, crepes, croque monsieur and plenty in between. We'll have a DJ spinning some tunes, and provide the perfect way to start your day - whether you've got plans later that evening, or not!
So get down to Lovin Dublin's Brunch Club and sample a French Blonde on us (now don't be getting any notions, it's a cocktail!), or try a French 75 which will hopefully be Ireland's winning margin on the day..

City mottos, much like the advice of Irish mammies, come with good intentions but are often out of touch with reality. Around the world, cities cling proudly to little sayings, preferably Latin and suitably obscure. Each carefully embroidered on their crests, as though a handful of words can neatly capture centuries of colloquial urban existence. […]

A Skort by Any Other Name On a humid afternoon this weekend at St Peregrine’s GAA Club Blanchardstown, west of Dublin, thirty camogie players took the field not in the sport’s traditional skorts, but in shorts. They weren’t in war paint or waving placards but they may as as well have been. The Kilkenny and […]

It has been 10 years since Dublin City Council handed the world’s richest mouse a free pass to the Spire Into a Giant Lightsaber and didn’t even ask for lunch money. It was December 2015. The Force Awakens was about to drop, and Disney, a company worth hundreds of billions, wanted to light up the […]

A survival guide for the tragically trendy now being bullied by signage. So. It’s sunny. You’ve got your tiny sunglasses on, your €17 graphic tee is cropped just enough to show the tattoo you got in a moment of heartbreak, and your Sambas have barely touched grass. You’ve done your civic duty and supported a […]

Sheela-na-Gigs are carvings, mostly stone, mostly medieval, of women displaying their genitals. Part warning, part weapon, part wild feminine energy. We’re talking full squat, vulva wide, ribs showing, boobs drooping, face sometimes skull-like. In a country where women’s bodies were hidden, punished, and moralised for centuries, it’s wild that these figures not only existed but […]
