Summary

Dublin’s nightlife is hit by a major ride-home crisis—60% of night-outgoers say taxi shortages keep them home early, with 70% struggling to find a ride, especially men and 35-54-year-olds. Taxis remain the top choice, but buses and the Dart follow, with some walking it off. Bar owners, backed by the Licensed Vintners Association, are demanding regulatory changes to allow ride-hailing apps like other European cities, arguing Dublin simply doesn’t have enough taxis—especially during peak hours—to let people enjoy the night safely and without stress.
