Daylight Disco - Voodoo Rooms Cork July

At Voodoo Rooms · 74 Oliver Plunkett Street, Cork City, Co. Cork
The Daylight Disco at Voodoo Rooms is Cork’s answer to a night out that doesn’t eat your Sunday. Running from 6pm to 10pm on a Saturday evening, it is built for people who want to dance properly - not shuffle to background music over a dinner - but still get home at a reasonable hour. The crowd skews 21-plus, the playlist is pure throwback, and the format has been running long enough to have built a loyal following in the city. If ABBA, Wham!, Whitney Houston, Take That or the Spice Girls are your people, this is your night.
Voodoo Rooms spreads across three floors and more than 15,000 square feet on Oliver Plunkett Street, and the Daylight Disco takes over two of them. Upstairs on the rooftop - Cork’s largest roof terrace bar - a DJ spins throwback favourites alongside karaoke-style singalong classics and prizes. Down on the main dancefloor, a second DJ handles summer party anthems and dancefloor fillers, with giveaways running across the evening. The two-room setup means you can drift between them depending on your mood: rooftop for a slightly more relaxed crowd singalong, dancefloor for full commitment to the moves.
The organisers, Popscene Cork, have been running this format across multiple dates through the year - the June edition sold out - so booking ahead is worth doing. Tickets are €12 via Eventbrite. The event ends at 10pm, which means you can have dinner before or after, and you’re not paying taxi rates at 3am.
Voodoo Rooms sits on Oliver Plunkett Street in the centre of Cork City, a short walk from Patrick Street and the pedestrianised shopping district. Cork’s main bus services run along Grand Parade and the nearby quays, making it straightforward to get in from most parts of the city and suburbs. Bus Eireann and local Cork city services connect the centre to surrounding towns. If you’re driving in from further afield, several multi-storey car parks are within a few minutes’ walk - Lavitt’s Quay and the Grand Parade car parks are commonly used for evenings in the city centre. Check parking app rates before you arrive, as weekend evening charges vary.
Oliver Plunkett Street and the surrounding lanes are among the busiest parts of Cork for bars, restaurants and independent shops, so arriving early for dinner first is easy to arrange. The English Market is a short detour away for a look around before it closes. There is more to see in Cork and across Co. Cork.
