Young people across Ireland can now find local activities taking place as part of Oíche na hÓige, also known as Youth Night Ireland. The Department of Education and Youth has published a county-by-county guide to help families and young people identify events in their area.
The official information was published on 4 November 2026 and updated on 6 November 2026 through gov.ie. Visitors can select their county to view the relevant local arrangements.
Youth Night Ireland: Find a Local Event
The directory is organised by location, making it easier to search for Oíche na hÓige events throughout the country. The published list includes:

What the county guide means for families
A central online listing gives communities one place to begin planning for Youth Night Ireland. Rather than searching across multiple announcements, users can move directly to their county section and check what is happening locally.
As event details may vary between areas, attendees should review the official information before making arrangements, including any local instructions supplied by organisers.
