From live music to clubs to traditional pubs, Cork has it all. There’s something for everyone here, and with the city being home to so many students, a lot of the bars and clubs now offer drinks promotions.
Again, because the city centre is compact, a lot of these places are close together and a short walk from the main street. Oliver Plunkett Street is home to some of the city’s most popular bars, including An Bróg and the Old Oak Bar.
For something a little different, there’s the MVM club night at the Everyman Palace Theatre on MacCurtain Street. As well as providing plenty of room to dance, it also shows cult movies in a comfy sofa cinema.
Live acts from rock bands to traditional Irish music performers can be seen at a range of venues across the city including Fred Zeppelins and Cyprus Avenue. The Cork Opera House, Ireland’s only purpose built opera house, also hosts a lot of different events if you fancy a break from the usual bars and clubs.
Throughout the year Cork hosts a variety of festivals, including the extremely popular Cork Jazz Festival which takes place in October.
For a good way to find out what’s happening in Cork, pick up the free ‘WhazOn? Cork’ booklet. As well as listing current events, this monthly guide also has a handy map and the lowdown on where to find a good meal in the city.
