Comment from Zoe Smith

With shorter days, frosty mornings and more than a few downpours, you’d be forgiven for thinking Dublin is a gloomy place to spend the winter months, but think again. Whether celebrating at one of the many winter festivals or cozying up in the local pub, Dublin has plenty to offer this winter.

Christmas is first on the agenda and Dublin wastes no time in dusting off the Christmas decorations, erecting a huge Christmas tree on O’Connell Street and brightening up the Temple Bar district with Christmas illuminations. Christmas markets, including the popular German Christmas market held in the Square Shopping Centre and the Docklands Christmas Market, bring some festive cheer to the city, and ice skating rinks pop up all over the city.
