DV8 Bar & Venue

DV8 is a bar and event venue at 131 James's Street in Dublin 8, up the road from the Guinness brewery. It is not a gay bar on an ordinary night, as far as we can tell. It's listed here because it is where the city's fetish and bear scene holds its big parties: OinK leather, rubber and latex nights, the FUR! dance party from Dublin Bears, and the Mr Dublin Leather contest during Dublin Leather Weekend. That makes it worth a trip on those dates only. Check outinkink.ie, leathermenofireland.ie or GCN's listings for the next party. We have no confirmed regular hours.
