The Dún Laoghaire Christmas Market, part of the town’s annual festive festival, brings a magical coastal charm to Dublin’s southside. Located in the heart of Dún Laoghaire Plaza and around Myrtle Square, the market features lovingly crafted stalls selling handmade gifts, artisan décor, and seasonal treats. 

Running from 24th November through to 23 December, the market pulses with weekend energy: Thursdays to Sundays, typically 12 pm–7 pm, while in the weeks before Christmas it opens daily with special hours.  Rides like a vintage carousel, Ferris wheel, and Santa’s sleigh ride elevate the funfair vibe, making it a full family-friendly attraction. 

Strolling through, you’ll be drawn by the scent of festive food — from hot chocolate and candy floss to gourmet sausages and glühwein. Live music, nostalgic organ performances, and a glowing light display add to the atmosphere, making Dún Laoghaire Christmas Markets a must-visit seasonal highlight.
