I'll be on holiday in Dublin on a Bank Holiday. Please explain?

I'm going to be in town for a holiday and one of the days is May 26. What is a bank holiday? Will everything be closed (food and shops?) or can I still do things? Thanks for any help.

the bank holiday is in northern ireland, Dublin wont be affected. Even if it was a bank holiday nothing closes here. everywhere is pretty much open sundays and bank holidays, just christmas day and easter sunday that most/a lot of shops are closed

Its not a bank holiday in Ireland that weekend, our bank holiday is the first week in June!, so it'll be businss as normal.

the bank holiday you mention is a UK bank holiday, Dublin is not part of the UK

A bank holiday is when most businesses close for the day, except shops. However, as only one person has said so far (which I find difficult to believe) its NOT a bank holiday in Ireland the weekend you plan to visit, so no need to worry


Misty Blue
Govt. run places will be shut other than that Dublin stops for no man.


Orla C
Bank Holidays are official public holidays, and banks, post offices, government buildings and some businesses will be closed.

However, there will be shops open - especially the big stores, it's when they do their best business - and many restaurants will also be open.


Podge and Rodge Tribute Band
Yes. Everything will be closed and you'll have to go to Mass.

It depends on the shop, I mean most big places stay open but a few small places close, its just like a 2nd Sunday, if its open on Sunday it'll be open bank holiday.


confucious says
everything will be open apart from the banks and post offices
