TwinkleTrail Locations

O’Connell Street

With giant sparkling reindeers, a magnificent Christmas tree festooned with lights, colourful light boxes with festive Christmas images, a huge Love Dublin sign and a big star for selfies as well as eight colourful light projections that dance across the GPO, it's a great time to visit O'Connell Street.

Teach an Ardmhéara

Step through the glimmering archways and into a magical world of twinkling lights, Shooting Stars & Carol Performances in the courtyard. Under shimmering fairy lights, take a photo in the beautiful, fully accessible sleigh. Be part of a Dublin Christmas tradition by visiting the IFA Live Animal Crib to meet the friendly donkeys, sheep, and goats in a warm and welcoming setting.

Barnardo Square

Enjoy the festive atmosphere surrounded by fantastic Christmas light projections. There's a colourful advent calendar light projection on City Hall and wonderful images by talented young artists showing how Dublin City Centre Twinkles at Christmas projected onto the side of Palace Street Building. With a magical giant Twinkling star for selfies, it's a great place to be!
