Things to do in Dublin, Province of Leinster: The Best Classes & Workshops
You've probably heard that Guinness tastes better in Dublin (fresh from the factory), but what you may not know is that Dublin is a perfect destination for the whole family. No, we're not suggesting you let the kiddies drink a pint. Instead, take them to the Dublin Zoo, to feed the ducks in Stephen's Green or on a picnic in Phoenix Park. Scholars enjoy walking in the literary footsteps of such writers as Yeats and Joyce, while discerning shoppers have their pick of designer boutiques.

1. The Irish Dance Party
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 632 reviews
The Irish Dance Party is one of Dublin’s best loved experiences where you get to see and hear top class live Irish music and dancing by award winning performers. Not only that, but true to the Irish spirit, everybody gets to give the dancing a go themselves. It is a 2 hour event. Seated at your own reserved table between dances, there is ample time to sit back and enjoy the entertainment with a beverage of your choice. Your charismatic and talented Irish music and dance entertainers will see to it that there is never a dull moment. It doesn't get any more Irish than that!

I went to this shop on the recommendation of Tripadvisor and I could not have been more pleased. Tucked into a Victorian shopping center in the Grafton St. area, the shop has lots of space and light for really enjoying the fine colors and wools. They have a good selection of Irish-milled wools, and I chose two colors from their in-house brand, which the daughter of the mother-daughter staff team dyes herself. We had a nice lunch downstairs in the shopping center, and they were kind enough to wind the wool for me while we ate. Lovely shop, and if I lived in Dublin I'd try to convince them to hold knitting evenings for sure! (If they don't already.) Tip: They are open on Sundays in the Fall and Winter--check their hours for your visit.

Cook your own dinner! Private hands-on practical or demonstration Irish Cooking classes including lunch or dinner
Reviewed By 17784GP - Dublin, Ireland
We recently had a class at Alix Gardner's cooking class for a corporate gorup of eight. As a group of eight, we arrived at a beautiful old Georgian house on Waterloo road, upon arrival we where welcomed by the amazing smell of food coming from the old, vintage style kitchen. As we took our seats around the massive wooden table Alix introduced herself and gave us our Menus for the meal we would be cooking. The menus included full cooking guide lines and ingredients. Alix made the cookery lesson feel very relaxed. Whilst listening to her explain and demonstrate how we would be making our main course we where treated to mini pancake with salmon and cream cheese and a glass of prosseco! We spent 2 hours making Mee Goreng stir fry and and a white chocolate and blueberry cheesecake. From start to finish, the evening was so much fun. We finished off by having a lovely meal and drinks (BYOD is a must) and chatting around the table!!
