The highlight of the tour for me was the Rory Gallagher section of the museum, a superb and fitting tribute to one of my heroes, but to be honest it was all brilliant, our host Reece was excellent: knowledgeable, informative and entertaining. There are some fabulous artefacts to look at, the Thin Lizzy stuff donated by his Mum is amazing and it was well worth the money. Luckily it was the only thing I could book at short notice (the Guiness museum and the Book of Kells being all booked up) and would recommend it to any serious music fan.

Explore central Dublin in one hit as you move from guided tastings at the Irish Whiskey Museum to studio access at the Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum.

Explore Dublin’s Irish Whiskey Museum and the Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience in one small-group day of tastings, studios, and memorabilia.

Getting started

Begin your combo by heading to the Irish Whiskey Museum on Grafton Street or the Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience, both in central Dublin, on your selected day. At each venue, present your mobile voucher at the entrance for ticket validation. You then join your expert guide, who introduces the tour format before you move into the main exhibition areas.

What to expect

Irish Whiskey Museum

Set in the heart of Dublin, the Irish Whiskey Museum focuses on how Irish whiskey evolved and influenced culture, industry, and national identity.

Features

Join a guided Irish Whiskey Museum tour led by an expert guide, who walks you through interactive displays on whiskey’s origins, rise, decline, and revival.

Take part in a tasting session of 3 Irish whiskey samples, chosen to highlight different styles, ingredients, distillation methods, and ages.

Soft drinks are provided for children and non-drinkers, so everyone can complete the full museum tour together.

Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience

The Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience celebrates Ireland’s music scene through working studios, themed rooms, and rare memorabilia.

Features

Take a guided tour of the Irish Rock 'N' Roll Museum Experience with an expert English-speaking guide, in a small-group setting of about 12 to 15 guests.

Step inside Temple Lane rehearsal studios and the Jam Room for behind-the-scenes access to real working spaces where artists rehearse and record.

Visit themed U2 and Thin Lizzy rooms that display guitars, stage pieces, and stories tracing the evolution of Irish rock.

Explore the Wall of Fame and Apollo Studio, where framed vinyl, exclusive photos, and personal artefacts such as Rory Gallagher Corner, Michael Jackson pyjamas, and a Phil Lynott jukebox are on display.

Spend time in the museum cinema and at interactive exhibits, engaging with films and hands-on displays that showcase Irish rock legends and their achievements.

Wrapping up

Once both guided visits are complete, you are free to leave from the final venue at your own pace or continue exploring Dublin’s nearby pubs, shops, and live music spots using the stories, tastings, and rock history you have just experienced as context for the rest of your day.
