Head to the Button Factory, Temple Bar's intimate live music and club venue. Catch a band or DJ set on the standing floor, grab a drink at one of its bars, or watch from the balcony.

📖

Full description

The Button Factory is a compact live music and clubbing venue in the heart of Temple Bar, staging bands and DJ nights across a range of genres. Reviewers describe a standing floor, a balcony with seats for those who prefer not to stand, bars both upstairs and downstairs, and a cloakroom near the entrance.

Lighting and effects add to the atmosphere on festival-style nights, and the small scale keeps the crowd close to the stage. On Saturdays it stays open until 3:00 AM, making it a fit for night owls and couples after a lively evening.

Reviews

Had a brilliant experience at The Button Factory. I went for the Based Festival event which was amazing. The lighting and effects really added to the atmosphere, and it’s fantastic to see the venue giving a platform to smaller, younger bands and helping them reach new audiences. A great spot for discovering new music…
