Discover its unique atmosphere, some of its most important decorated corners and the main customs of the Irish people during these dates with the help of an official guide in Spanish , with whom we will walk through emblematic places of the Irish capital during the most endearing time of the year.

Here, we'll also be able to enjoy the cosy Christmas market 'Christmas at the Castle' (while it's available), discovering the different stalls, attractions and activities that this place with more than 1000 years of history hosts.

For years, Christmas in the capital of Ireland cannot be understood without the light and colour projections of the ' Dublin Winter Lights' festival, spread throughout the city. In Barnardo Square , one of the places that usually star in this initiative, we will learn more about how it works and in what other locations we can enjoy the show. Together with Dublin City Hall, we will also delve into the meaning of the Irish traditions of placing candles in windows or holly wreaths on the doors of homes.

We'll discover what the 'Christmas Pantomimes' or the ancient customs that take place on St. Stephen's Day all over the country are all about in front of the iconic Olympia Theatre , before strolling through the heart of the emblematic Temple Bar , the best place to immerse ourselves in a unique Christmas atmosphere in the world. We'll see how the pubs are decked out with striking lights and decorations, and celebrate special events, such as the curious Christmas pub crawl . With the help of our official guides you'll also learn which are the most famous Christmas songs or how to warm up with a hot drink .

Parliament Square and Grafton Street await us to discover what the Irish eat at Christmas, where they shop or how they wish each other happy holidays in Gaelic. We will also be surprised by some unique traditions, such as the Christmas bath or watching Christmas classics at a drive-in cinema. At Mansion House we will complete our journey into Dublin Christmas, while we observe its careful decoration and learn how New Year's Eve and New Year are celebrated in the city or what the Women's Christmas consists of.
