Itinerary
Located in the heart of Temple Bar—Dublin's Cultural Quarter—the Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience is the only place in Ireland to celebrate Rock 'N' Roll. This 1.5-hour tour will take visitors on a historical musical journey, where you'll travel behind the scenes of some of Ireland's largest acts. This fully-guided tour has informative exhibits from Irish Rock 'N' Roll with access to one of Dublin's most legendary venues and recording studios. Over the years these facilities have hosted some of Ireland's most popular artists including Van Morrison, Thin Lizzy, Sinead O'Conner, and others. Discover more than just the music itself, this museum provides some insight into the lives and careers of the artists, and is a way to really walk in the footsteps of some of your musical heroes. At the end of the 75-minute tour, you finish in the middle of Temple Bar where you originally started the tour.

Traveler reviews
Fantastic insights to the Irish rock scene.
Fantastic insights to the Irish rock scene. Matthew did a fantastic job with his passion for the music and history really shining though. We really enjoyed the artefacts and the stories.
Great guide - Kevin
Kevin was an excellent guide. He tailored the experience to our interests, was very knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. A wonderful experience.
Hit all the right notes
Fair play! Kevin, our tour guide was great - so knowledgeable and clear to see his love for the music, the history, the instruments and Venue, and a great guy to encourage the chats and a jam (no gimmicky stuff.. just the real deal). We had a small group - a couple and I, and we got so much value from our hour there. Up close and personal with legendary memorabilia, Kevin giving us the insider history and we got to sit at the amazing old recording desk. So glad I stumbled in on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
Great Tour. A ‘Must Do’ in Dublin.
Very Informative. Our tour guide Matthew knew a lot and was easily able to share that information with us. He made the tour that much better.
A modern way to make a museum experience
It is absolutely amazing guided tour through Irish Rock'n'Roll. Lovely and true stories and kept artefacts. If a meloman or music lover just go and enjoy
