About block.

block. at 13-14 Liberty Lane is one of Dublin’s better small club rooms. It’s compact, the sound is right, and the crowd tends to be people who are actually there for the music rather than the occasion. If you haven’t been before, this is a solid introduction to the venue.

What to expect

11pm doors means this is a properly late night. The room builds through the small hours, so there’s no rush to be first through the door, but capacity is limited so don’t leave it too late either.

Dress for a club, not a bar. Liberty Lane is a focused listening environment, which is part of what makes it good.
