Christmas at
the Home of
Guinness
Make a Moment of It
Christmas isn’t just one big moment. It’s all the little ones that make it.
The long-overdue catch-up. A song that gets everyone singing. A lovely pint raised together. A new tradition you didn’t know you were starting.
This Christmas, the Guinness Storehouse is bringing the festive season to life, transforming the Home of Guinness into the Home of Christmas Moments.
From the cobbles of Dublin 8 to the top of Gravity Bar, there’s plenty to bring people together – live music, festive food, Christmas gifting and a beautiful pint or two along the way.
Whatever brings you together, there’s room for another Christmas moment at the Home of Guinness
Christmas, All Around
Step inside and see the Home of Guinness transformed for the season, inspired by the stories, rituals and moments that bring us together at Christmas.
There’s Dublin in the details – from a cityscape of familiar streets and landmarks at the Atrium Gate to thousands of Christmas baubles hanging overhead in Gravity Bar, with the city stretching out all around you. Out on the cobbles, a 26-foot Christmas tree stands in the heart of Dublin 8, with a glowing harp atop.
There’s plenty to hear along the way too, with roving choirs, pop-up performances and new Irish music filling the Storehouse throughout the season.
And out in the Cobble Yard, there’s even more to tuck into.
Gather Around the Table
Christmas is better shared.
At 1837 Bar & Brasserie, settle in for a new festive set menu served family-style against the backdrop of an illuminated Dublin city.
Think seasonal starters made for sharing, a generous turkey and ham pie with all the trimmings, and our bespoke Black Gate Baked Alaska to finish. Accompany it all with a Mulled Guinness, served warm for a different way to experience Guinness this Christmas.
Made Personal
It’s the personal touches that make a good gift a great one.
In the Snug on the fourth floor, add a little something personal – with a Christmas verse written on the spot by our typewriter poet, or a hand-calligraphed gift tag from Calligraphy by Laura.
There’s plenty to discover in the Guinness Store too, with limited-edition seasonal collections from Irish and international designers and makers, including Mason London, Lazy Oaf and De Bruir. Inspired by the Guinness archive, each puts its own stamp on the stories, symbols and designs that have shaped Guinness over the years.
For everyone on your Christmas list. Yourself included.
Make More of Your Visit
There’s more than one way to experience the Home of Guinness.
Learn to pour your own beautiful pint at the Guinness Academy, or go beyond the Storehouse and behind the scenes with the Brewery Experience, where you’ll journey through the underground tunnels beneath St. James’s Gate and into the working heart of the brewery at Brewhouse 4, before sitting down to lunch celebrating Irish ingredients and seasonal flavours.
Live Music
Live Music at the Home of Guinness
Christmas sounds a little different on every floor.
Throughout the season, live performances will pop up around the Storehouse – from the cosy corners of the Snug to the cobbles outside.
Over in the Arrol Suite, Brewing Talent puts new Irish music on the bill, with a line-up of emerging artists.
From songs you know by heart to names you’ll want to remember.
Other Voices: Home returns to the Guinness Storehouse on Sunday, 8 November, bringing an intimate night of live music and song to the heart of Dublin 8.
As Other Voices begins the journey towards its landmark 25th edition in Dingle, Iceage, Cormac Begley and Quiet Light are among the first artists announced for a special night celebrating music, culture and community.
