About the event

The Irish pub has long been a cornerstone of Irish culture, but in recent years, many have been closing their doors. What’s behind the decline, and what does it say about broader social and economic trends? This session will explore the economic factors contributing to the downfall of the traditional Irish pub, from rising rents to changing social habits. It will also delve into what this means for Irish communities, as pubs have historically been much more than just a place to drink—they’ve been vital social hubs. Can the Irish pub survive, or is it a relic of the past?
