Every Thursday at District we’ll be curating a selection of unmissable events in Dublin ahead of the coming weekend. Whether you have an appetite for thumping techno or are craving some hip hop classics we have you covered.

If you have been detoxing and taking it easy this month then you’ll be well aware you are on the final stretch. We’ve got some great film screenings, theatre performances and if you still need some dance-inducing nights then we have you covered.

Beat the January blues and enjoy what the city has to offer this weekend.
