At The Chambers Bar · 44 Mount Street, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath
The Chambers Bar on Mount Street in Mullingar puts on live music every Friday night, the pub’s regular weekly fixture through 2026. The bill rotates between local bands, tribute acts and touring solo artists. Past Fridays this year have included Abbaesque, and Willa White and Eric Lalor, with acts such as The Frank and Walters performing acoustic sets and The Noughties booked in for later in the year. Doors and music generally start around 8pm.
Expect a casual bar gig rather than a formal concert. The room is a working pub with a full drinks menu, and the band plays from a corner stage while regulars come and go around it. Some Fridays are built around one named act with tickets sold in advance through Eventbrite, others are a more open live-music night with free entry, so it is worth checking the Chambers Bar’s Facebook page or website for that week’s specific lineup before heading down. The venue has built a reputation as one of Mullingar’s steadier live-music rooms, hosting everything from acoustic duos to full bands across a typical month, and Friday is consistently the night it commits to live acts rather than DJs or general bar trade.
