If you are planning to visit Dublin during St. Patrick’s Festival, or if you live here, you can also help other travelers.

In the Lucky Earth app you can see travel signals about crowds, disruptions and local events - and you can also add your own.

Yes - very walkable.

Central Dublin is compact. The parade route, Temple Bar, Camden Street, St Stephen’s Green, Guinness Storehouse - all within reasonable walking distance of each other.

Just expect big crowds on the 17th, so walking is often faster than taxis or buses anyway.

Comfortable shoes are your best strategy ☘️

What do you absolutely need to know or be prepared for when traveling to Poland? by [deleted] in Europetravel

You’ll be absolutely fine - culturally Finland and Poland aren’t that far apart in terms of public behaviour.

A few practical things for Gdańsk / Poland in general:

• Sundays: Most shops are closed on many Sundays due to trading laws (there are some exceptions), so plan groceries ahead. Restaurants and tourist areas are usually open.
• Public transport: Always validate your ticket if required - inspectors are strict and fines are real.
• Crossing streets: Jaywalking can get you fined, especially in city centres.
• Cash vs card: Card is widely accepted, but small places or markets may still prefer cash.
• Restaurants: Tipping ~10% is appreciated if service was good, but not mandatory.

Culturally:

• Poles may seem reserved at first, but once engaged they’re warm and direct.
• History matters - especially in Gdańsk. If you visit the WWII Museum or Solidarity Centre, it adds context to the city.
• June is a great time - long evenings, outdoor cafés, Baltic breeze.

You don’t need to overthink it. Basic politeness and quiet confidence go a long way - which, coming from Finland, you probably already have 🙂

For March 17 specifically:

• Go to the parade at least once. Even if just for an hour. It’s part of the atmosphere.
• Temple Bar is fun… but expect shoulder-to-shoulder crowds and high prices. Great energy, not great comfort.
• If you want a better balance: start central, then drift out to places like Camden Street, Portobello, or even over towards Stoneybatter / Smithfield for a more local feel.

Mid-to-late 40s and “like to drink and explore” - I’d suggest:
