Getting in the Mood
Get the day off to a great start and crank up the romance factor by soaking up the love-soaked rhymes provided by Guerilla Love Poetry; these talented poets and wordsmiths will be performing on the Millennium Bridge, Ha’penny Bridge and O’ Connell Bridge. After listening to these impassioned words of love, you are sure to be in the mood for passion and romance.
A Romantic Stroll
If you want to be wooed by the city while simultaneously wooing your significant other, why not take the Alternative Valentine’s Day Trail? This fascinating and fun-filled walk includes St Patrick’s Cathedral, the Abbey Theatre and 82 Merrion Square, former home of incurable romantic WB Yeats.
Cosy Up in a Typical Dublin Pub
Dublin is filled with charming and characterful pubs offering a great night out, and Valentine’s Day gives you the perfect opportunity to explore some of them and enjoy some romantic drinks. Head to The Library Bar or The Waterloo Bar – perfect venues for snuggling up over a few pints.
Purchase a Claddagh Ring
If you are not quite ready to pop the question, but you still want to show your partner how much you love them, why not search for a beautiful Irish Claddagh Ring, a stunning symbol of love and partnership? The ring’s design consists of two hands clasped around a heart, with a crown, and the stirring motto is ‘Let love and friendship reign’. You couldn’t find a much more meaningful – or more Irish – Valentine’s Day gift to give your special someone.
