To celebrate Dublin’s music culture and community, District has created: “A Night at the Cobblestone” - a film that documents live Irish Trad music performances from inside The Cobblestone pub in Smithfield, Dublin 7.
In October 2021, Marron Estates Ltd. applied to the council for permission to construct a nine-storey hotel at 77-80 North King Street, in Smithfield, Dublin 7, which includes The Cobblestone.
As a protected structure, the pub would have been retained as part of the proposed development, but an outdoor area and the pub’s Backroom venue would have been demolished.
The plan proved contentious: almost 700 objections were lodged with the council; an online petition, Save The Cobblestone, gathered almost 35,000 signatures; and rallies in support of the pub were held.
In late November 2021, planning permission to alter The Cobblestone was refused, resulting in a rare win for music and culture lovers in Dublin city.
This film showcases the magic that happens in there on a regular Monday evening.
The film features performances from:
- Ispíní na hÉireann
- Sam Noonan
- Emmet O’Brien
- Adam Mohamed
- and very special guests.
Shot and edited by CLTV.FILM, produced by Adrian Errity.
This project was funded by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.
