The specific connector the OP is looking for though, they may struggle to obtain locally in a non-specialist store.

Was usually the best night out! It's been years since I've done that! Won't be at that night in Benners unfortunately, although thankfully I am going out one night over Christmas!! Can't wait, especially as it's my first night out since having my baby!! God help me! Lol

With this in mind, Benners Hotel Castle Street have come up with something a little different this Christmas for all of the folks who want to catch up on Friday, December 23rd. ‘Home for Christmas’ is offering a new venue for the over 28’s with two DJs in different rooms all in one venue. Local DJ Gary Fitz will be playing all the great tunes from his Ecleto collection in the Courtyard bar, while DJ Mick will be playing all the popular music with some Christmas classics in the main night club. Traditionally a very busy night in town, Benners wanted to offer a different venue to the older revellers. Mary McQuinn and Orlagh Winters came up with the idea a number of months ago and have worked hard to ensure that the night will be a success. They said it is something new and it was due to the amount of people asking about an alternative venue to mix with people their own age that the concept is now coming to fruition. Festive cocktails and treats will be available on the night to help all those attending get into the Christmas Spirit. Tickets are selling fast and are available at Benners Hotel for €10. Doors are open at 11pm.http://traleetoday.ie/benners-organises-night-friends-catch-home-christmas/

Not a nice thing to happen. *Updated to add that apparently the Edward st one is open today so perhaps they are moving it all in there.
