There’s so much to do at Taste that you need to plan ahead and do your research. Otherwise, you could miss out on some of the best bits! There’s a lot of different demos masterclasses and tastings happening over the few days so check the schedule to make sure you catch your favourites.

5. Don’t forget the Irish weather

This week is living proof that you can have four seasons in 24 hours in Ireland so make sure you’re prepared for every eventuality! That means SPF, umbrellas, raincoats – you know the drill.

6. Stock up on your florins

Your euros are no good to you at Taste Of Dublin. Instead, the festival uses a special currency called florins that you can buy on site. Stock up on arrival and you’re all set to enjoy the festival!
