This year, for the first time ever at the Irish Open, one of Dublin’s finest food and drink emporiums 37 Dawson Street will be transporting itself to a prime location at one of the Palmer Course’s most iconic holes.

37 Dawson Street is one of Dublin’s most popular bars and the team behind its success will be running the public bar area by the 16th green which golf fans will remember as the hole which sparked some amazing celebrations from Darren Clarke after he won his Singles match at the Ryder Cup in 2006.
