Thanksgiving dinner & show

The Merry Ploughboy Pub will be celebrating Thanksgiving when our traditional dinner & show takes on a seasonal Thanksgiving twist.

Celebrated annually in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November, the holiday of Thanksgiving was first observed in 1621 and continues to be an American tradition today.

Thanksgiving means many things to different people but for most, the holiday of Thanksgiving is synonymous with a festive meal with friends and family and of course turkey!

The Thanksgiving dinner & show can now be booked online (and yes there will of course be Turkey and cranberry sauce).

Happy Thanksgiving.

About our traditional show (voted best in Ireland)

The show takes place in the ideal location, a pub owned and run by musicians who have been performing to audiences in Dublin since 1989.

Midway through the show, All-Ireland and World champion Irish Dancers from Dublin and beyond perform a specially commissioned show.

The very best of fresh Irish food is served from our restaurant which offers a choice menu.

The entertainment commences with Ireland's leading traditional Irish music group The Merry Ploughboys.

The Merry Ploughboys (the owners of the pub) are proud to host the longest running show in Ireland hosted by the same performers over an impressive 34 years.
