    I know this is a bit left field here but Wexford town has a great nightlife, weekends only though! The Stores on Sunday night of BankHoliday weekend=craicfest ! :)

    (Really need to haul my arse to Galway though by the sounds of things..)

    Galway's the best.

    Is The Foundry in Carlow not one of the biggest "niteclubs".

    It was when it opened AFAIK.

    It has to be Galway!!! No question about it. Galway Races coming up end of July/beg of August, it is a week to remember if you can possibly manage that, its mental craic.

    trinnity rooms in limerick is very good aswell.. but i wouldnt go there for *just* that like..

    Trooms is a hole compared to Angel Lane which opened last week. Maybe that's just boredom speaking, but I could never gather why it won best nightclub in Limerick, never mind Ireland.

    Galway without a doubt - great all year round and during the summer some great festivals.

    Agreed Galways great but must echo many in saying mighty criac to be had in Wexford town might be biased but two cracking top notch clubs in the stores and the factory.

    Last time I went on the lash I hit a midget an elderly lady and a few skangers for good measure ... but then they took my whip away.

    /edit: uh, Dublin, all down to the company tho.

    I think you have to include the pubs that are attached to the night club itself
    dinn ri, brookes, the tower etc

    galway is the 14th best place to visit in Europe and 42nd overall on planet earth according to tripadvisor, maybe the 15 million that write reviews for that website are paid by the Galway tourist board too :p

    Fair enough, just have had better weekends in Waterford, Limerick. Think Galway is hyped up too much but each to their own.

    Belfast is the best city, has the kind of vibe Dublin had in 1996 / 1997 - Clubs are great, Bars are good too and the currency is going down faster than a whores knickers....

    Here is a list of Bars but just go gallivanting...http://secretireland.blogspot.com/2008/08/antrim-pub-grub-bars-central-nightlife.html

    Galway is a poky little dump. Not a single decent club in the whole town.

    Dublin is definitely the best place in Ireland to go out. It's the only place I know of where you can actually avoid chart music and the type of people who wear a shirt, slacks and shiny shoes going to a club.

    Plus there's variety... y'know... don't have to go to the same nightclub every week because there's no real alternative...

    The whole Dinn Rí complex was probably the largest when it opened, but no more. None of it's venues are particularily huge but The foundry does claim to have the largest nightclub video wall in the world.



    Had many a good night out in Kilkenny, Waterford, Galway, Roscommon and Tralee.

    A lot of people go on about Galway being a great place going out on the lash (many of those people are Galway people themselfs though!) but any time I have ever gone out there I have only had an average at best night.

    So for me I'm going to say Derry for the win, great pubs, great vibe and easy to get around!

    I'd say Galway. Its a great place to go on a huge pub crawl which could easily last a lot longer than a weekend. I've met a few people who've gone there for a weekend and liked the place so much that they stayed there for years......
    Also I like Dublin and some towns can be pretty good at times.

    HALO in galway is a gem of a nightclub, also the Living/Front room. Stay away from the GPO though.

    Never had a bad night in either Limerick or Cork city, they both have a brillaint nightlife.

    I'm not so into Galway, well not as much as everyone else in this thread.
