10 Best Places for Live Music in Dublin | Condé Nast Traveler
"A multi-purpose venue along the quays in the heart of Temple Bar, this fine Georgian building served as the City of Dublin Working Men’s Club between 1888 and 2003, providing musical and theatrical entertainment for the city’s brewers, dockers, and drovers, along with a multitude of other tradesmen. It took a bit of a break, but since reopening in 2010, the rechristened Workman’s Club sought to establish itself as the premier venue for all kinds of indie expression, from spoken word and comedy to hard rock and EDM club nights. The main room is a 300-capacity venue, with two separate bars and a roof terrace (which is where you’ll find the excellent Wow Burger outlet) able to accommodate twice as many more. At its heart, this place is about the expression of the indie spirit, so one night you might hear a local rock band on the rise, an EDM DJ or a talk series shining a light on the importance of mental health—they like to keep you guessing." - Fionn Davenport
