Wigwam Rumbullion Festival 2026

At Wigwam · 54 Middle Abbey Street, Dublin 1

Colourful tiki cocktails and rum at Wigwam Dublin

What to Expect

Dublin’s best rum festival returns to Wigwam for the June Bank Holiday weekend, running from Friday 29 May to Sunday 31 May 2026. The Rumbullion Festival is Wigwam at its most festive: three days of 50-plus rums from around the world, live music and DJs, cocktail making workshops, a tiki rum bar in the lobby, rum tastings, drag brunches, drag and dine events, tiki bingo, pottery painting sessions and much more.

The early bird ticket is a bargain at €5, including a Pina Colada, a lei and a portion of churros on arrival. With its warm, colourful interior and brilliant cocktail programme, Wigwam is one of Dublin city centre’s most distinctive venues, and the Rumbullion Festival is the event that best captures the bar’s playful, inclusive spirit.

Whether you come for a rum masterclass, the Saturday night DJ set, the Sunday drag brunch or simply to work your way through the rum menu, the festival offers something for every kind of weekend reveller. It is a long-running Dublin favourite and one of the most unique bank holiday events in the city.
