The Guinness Choir Christmas Concert
Sunday at 6:30pm in St. Patrick’s Cathedral
Due to the great success of their first performance, The Guinness Choir have announced they will be returning to St. Patrick’s Cathedral and invite the public to take a weight off their Christmas shopping feet and to join them for classical choral songs and carols. There will be an exciting guest appearance by Irish Folk singer song writer Paul Brady!
Dublin’s Santa Cycle
Sunday at 5pm at Phoenix Park
The aim is to light up the city with Santas by cycling through the city centre raising funds for Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital.
Buy A Christmas Tree & Support Charity
All weekend at Carrickmines Retail Park
A massive selection to choose from at any one time. All trees are premium quality that we hand picked in May this year. All profits after costs are donated to the Laura Lynn Children’s Hospice, and they have raised €20,150 to date.
Visit Santa!
Across Dublin City
There is no better way to get into the Christmas spirit then going to see Santa Claus and all of his little helpers.
That’s all our ideas, but make sure to check out this huge selection here.
