However, if you’re looking for a more authentic Irish experience, consider visiting during St. Patrick’s Day (March 17th) or in December for Christmas markets and festive cheer. The Galway International Arts Festival in July is worth checking out, as is the Cork Jazz Festival in October. No matter when you decide to visit, Dublin and the rest of Ireland will welcome you with open arms. Just be prepared for some unpredictable weather!

Parking in Dublin itself is tricky with a motorhome. Most parking spots are free in the suburbs, but you’ll have to pay for parking in the city center. In addition, nearly all of the best parking lots in the city center are multi-level garages with height restrictions – a no go for camper vans and motorhomes. Fortunately, so long as you don’t mind doing a little walking or catching public transport, there are plenty of options.
