2nd February
Ireland vs England
Ireland’s 6 Nations campaign kicks off with the toughest of tests against our big rivals England. Although we may have gotten the better of them in the past few years, you can never underestimate a team that’s ranked number 4 in the world! This game is a complete sell out but be sure to head down to your local. The atmosphere is bound to be through the roof.
3rd February
Super Bowl L111
Whether you’re interested in the halftime show, the commercials or the game itself, it’s no longer just for Americans. You’ll need a few cups of coffee nearby if you plan to watch it at home but with watching parties being planned all across the city, we recommend making the most of it and grabbing a few mates to attend one of these.

Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival
The DIFF curates and presents the best in emerging International and Irish film through this annual festival. With opportunities to have first glimpses at new projects, sit in on panel discussions and take part in Q&A sessions, this festival is a must for any movie-buff out there.
