Ever wanted to be on top of the world? Or at least the top of the Dublin world? You can do it this weekend
Open House Dublin is on from today 8 October to Sunday 11 October, opening doors ordinarily closed to the public – including the roof terrace on Liberty Hall which is where I’ll be headed on Saturday morning
Liberty Hall was Dublin’s first skyscraper, built in 1965. It will be open on Saturday and Sunday 10am–1pm with the last tour at 12.40pm. The tours will run regularly on a first-come basis so get there early. I’m really looking forward to seeing the view from the top, the highest I’ve been in Dublin is the Gravity Bar in the Guinness Storehouse. The Guinness Storehouse and Factory will also be holding tours over the weekend though...
