SUN: Iconic Pub Night at The Old Stand (08 Nov 2026)

Sun, 08 Nov 2026 16:00:00 GMT

Join us for a pint at this iconic Dublin pub!

The Old Stand on Exchequer Street is one of Dublin’s historic pubs, having occupied the site for over 300 years in an area of great importance during Viking and medieval times. In the 1760s, it attracted crowds through the wit and humour of John Travere, a popular cobbler and entertainer. Originally known as Chequer Lane, Exchequer Street received its current name in 1776. The Old Stand operated as both a pub and grocery store from 1817, changing ownership several times before John Cox took over in 1885 and focused the business entirely on selling drink, recognising that it was more profitable than groceries.

Guests are welcomed and encouraged. The more the merrier, we'd love to see you there. Cheers!

Our speaker for November will be:

Dr. Priscilla Sonnier with RSAI (Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland)

‘Sartorial Sensibilities: Documenting the Social Fabric and Evolution of Irish Dress and Fashion History’

This informal talk will trace the social significance of Irish textiles from the early-eighteenth-century to the present day. With a particular focus on the formative years of the Irish textile industry during the Ascendancy period (c. 1690-1800), and how the visuality and materiality of linen, wool and silks, became interwoven with Irish ‘patriotism’, this talk will highlight how these early efforts have subsequently informed and influenced designs and designers from the Celtic Revival to Jonathan Anderson for Dior.

Wednesday, November 11th

Peaches Brasserie off St Stephens Green

35-38 Saint Stephen's Green Dublin Co Dublin

7:00 pm to 9:00 pm
