Vinyl Collective - DJ Night at Whelan's

The Saturday DJ night upstairs at Whelan’s is one of the best-kept secrets on the Dublin nightlife scene. All-vinyl sets from a rotating cast of Dublin’s best selectors, covering funk, soul, disco, hip hop, and whatever else sounds right on a Saturday night.

What to Expect

This is not a club night in the conventional sense. It’s a room full of people who love music, a great sound system, and DJs who dig deep into their record collections. The upstairs room at Whelan’s is intimate and the sound is warm and full. The music policy is broad but the quality is consistent.

Good to Know

• Free entry
• Every Saturday from 10pm to late
• The downstairs venue may have a separate gig happening - both are worth checking
• Whelan’s bar serves until late
• Wexford Street has plenty of late-night food options nearby

Getting There

Whelan’s is at 25 Wexford Street, a 10-minute walk from St Stephen’s Green. The nearest Luas stop is Harcourt on the Green Line. Dublin Bus routes along Camden Street and Aungier Street serve the area.
