    Can anyone suggest some where in town where you could have a party for about 100 people, dj and probably some food - sandwiches etc. I know Busker Browns have a venue on their 3rd floor - just looking it up on their website. I need to contact them and see if it can be sectioned off from the main pub.
    But I guess I'd be looking for somewhere similar... any suggestions? :confused:

    Late night, I have been at stuff at Nimmos. Heard about Buskers too. Front Door do some sort of a section rope off too.

    Theres a small room at the top of the Kings Head - not sure if it'll fit 100 skulls though. Its nice and private with its own bar and toilets.

    Depends how intimate you want to be. Morgans are pretty good for a small party. If you want a separate room though try the Western, Prospect Hill, Crowes, Monroes. De Burgos used to be great, don't know story now though.

    Kings Head, Buskers, Front Door. They much of a much and close to town. Don't think they charge for booking an upstairs room anymore. But if you don't ask, they will!!

    Victoria hotel do a number of options......restaurant or old nightclub can be hired at a good rate.

    An Pucan has a disco upstairs which would fit 100 easy, has bar. Don't know how much to rent but I've been there for functions.

    I think the Ruby room in The kings head only holds 50. The Town hall are worth looking into. I tried the museum but they only do launches and "daytime" do's.

    The Rowing club in Woodquay is always a good bet. THe college bar in NUIG could be worth a try too

    I've attended a couple. If the ambience of an old night club is what you're looking for, head on over. The staff were very strict about serving residents only from the dot of 12:30 (I think that was the time) - didn't flash the lights to warn folks either.

    Not bad. Just not great either.
