The Voodoo Lounge, Music venue in Arran Quay, Dublin, Ireland.
The Voodoo Lounge sits at 39-40 Arran Quay in central Dublin and hosts live performances several nights per week across rock, metal, punk, and dance genres. The compact space creates an intimate connection between performers and audiences.
The venue was founded in the early 2000s by Dermot Doran and Kieran Finnerty as a music space. It paused music operations for a period as a card gaming establishment before returning to live performances in 2013.
The venue draws fans of metal, punk, and alternative music who form an engaged community here. Regular performances by touring bands have made it an important gathering place for these music scenes in Dublin.
The venue sits centrally in Dublin and is wheelchair accessible. Its small footprint means good spots fill quickly, so arriving early gives you better placement in the crowd.
Between its time as a music venue, the space operated as a specialized poker tournament establishment. This unusual transition shows how the space adapted to different uses before returning to live music.
