A long surviving live music venue, Brandon’s Bar is renowned for bringing an alternative to Ennis.

Standing in the shadow of Ennis Cathedral, this is the place to check out some original local or touring musical talent.

Apart from the music sessions, the self-described ‘shabby-chic’ venue is well-known for its bohemian clientele and informality. Alternative live music nights are held every Friday and Saturday for a small fee that also includes late night club entrance.

If you have trouble holding a conversation over all the glorious live music filling your ears, there’s a large outdoor area or pool room to relax in.
