The Dublin Block Party returns for 2025!
The Dublin Block Party returns for its third year this July, continuing its mission to celebrate community, creativity and connection in the heart of Dublin2.
Founded by artist Maser, and presented by Atelier Now, this one day event will transform Charlemont Square into a hub of live art, music, workshops and family friendly activities on Saturday, July 26th.
10 visual artists will take to Charlemont Square where each artist will create a live painting from start to finish, resulting in 10 unique murals. Visitors are encouraged to come along, meet the artists and engage with the vibrant cultural scene that Dublin has to offer. We’ll have a coffee truck onsite, a craft market, food by Krewe, a live DJ and a (ticketed) evening of music and poetry to close out the events.
This will be a family friendly environment with children encouraged to take part in the kids mural wall, a kite building workshop, face painting, tie-dye workshop and more.
Free event, all welcome.
