Christmas Parties in Dublin City Centre. Private Hire at Bestseller, Dawson Street

A Unique Private Event Venue in Dublin City Centre

Looking for a Christmas party venue in Dublin city centre that isn't a marquee, a hotel ballroom, or a queue out the door? Bestseller is a former bible bookstore turned stylish wine bar on Dawson Street, now available for private Christmas party hire this December.

With space for up to 70 guests, it's one of Dublin 2's most unique venues for an intimate, high-end office Christmas party, client drinks reception, or private festive celebration full of character, atmosphere and history you won't find in a standard function room.

Add a live jazz band for the evening, and you've got a Christmas party your guests will actually remember. Step straight out onto Dawson Street, right in the middle of Dublin's nightlife, if anyone fancies keeping the night going.

Why book a midweek Christmas party

This December, Bestseller is offering private Christmas party hire on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings — and there's a real advantage to going midweek. You get the whole venue to yourselves, calmer city centre streets, easier taxis home, and a more relaxed, intimate atmosphere than the usual Thursday-to-Saturday party crush. If your team wants a proper sit-down, wine-led Christmas celebration without competing for space in a packed venue, midweek at Bestseller is the answer.

Why a midweek Christmas party works:

  • Full exclusive use of the venue — no other parties, no shared space

  • A calmer, more intimate atmosphere for corporate and private groups

  • Easier to book restaurants, taxis and late bars nearby afterwards

  • Ideal for smaller teams, client entertaining, or an alternative to the traditional Friday night office party

  • Great availability in the run-up to Christmas — book early for November and December dates
