    Very good show! 🤩👏🎉

    Amazing show and good food! The place is 35 minutes away from the center of Dublin, but it was worth it! You can go to their website and book a shuttle if you’re staying in the city center. I would definitely recommend this experience!

    Great show but can’t pick your seat

    Food was ok. Servers were excellent - next time I’d skip the meal and just do the show which was PHENOMENAL!! Seating was tricky if you’re not with a large tour bus. You can’t pick seats and our seats were way to the side with an obstructed view. I had to move my chair over or my back would’ve been to the stage! Fortunately not a common likelihood to occur.

    Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.

    How much does Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket cost?

    +

    Prices start at $74 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.

    Is Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 84 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket?

    +

    Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 3.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Dublin?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Belfast Titanic Dunluce Castle Giants Causeway Tour, Dublin to Belfast Black Cab: Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway, Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Dublin?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Dublin?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket?

    +

    Included: Two hours of fantastic entertainment at the only pub in Ireland owned by Traditional Music. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket?

    +

    The experience starts at Merry Ploughboys Irish Night, Edmondstown Road, Rockbrook, Rathfarnham, Dublin, D16 HK02, Ireland. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Merry Ploughboys Irish Night Dublin Admission Ticket?
