Just south of Sandycove lies the small coastal town of Dún Laoghaire, where every Sunday, at 2 Glenageary Rd. Lower, you’ll find the People’s Park Market. It’s a local market, with a wealth of colors, smells and flavors… All in a friendly atmosphere, where smiling merchants will be delighted to tell you all about their local products!
If you want to see Dublin like a local, this is the place to do it!
The authentic Dún Laoghaire market is one of the town’s most popular weekly events. It has the advantage of taking place in the heart of the city park, right in the middle of nature. You’ll recognize it by the multicolored tents of the merchants, who are used to displaying their stalls in a cheerful, fun-filled atmosphere!
And let’s face it, it would be a real shame to go to Dún Laoghaire without visiting its Sunday market!
On the program, expect to meet nearly 50 merchants, displaying products of all kinds! Arts and crafts, local products such as honey, freshly baked breads and, of course, seasonal produce from local farms (eggs, meat, cheese, etc.). The products are of the highest quality and produced with passion: you can go there without fear!
You won’t be able to leave this farmers’ market empty-handed, so don’t even try!
Instead, bring a bag to take home your delicious breads, artisanal oils, local cheeses and any other delicious items you couldn’t resist buying.
Above all, don’t hesitate to ask our dealers for advice. They’ll be happy to explain how to cook a particular dish (even if you’re not at ease with English, they’re used to it and always make an effort to make themselves understood).
The park itself is a charming, Victorian-era space. It features an authentic bandstand: the perfect place to relax!
Our little tip: to enjoy the typical atmosphere of the Dún Laoghaire Market even more, don’t hesitate to buy a hot dish from one of the market vendors. Take a seat in the park, and once you’ve finished your picnic, take a stroll around the grounds to enjoy the greenery!
