A Christmas Market has opened beside Brew Dog at Capital Dock in Dublin, bringing together sellers offering up great gift ideas including homemade art, candles, fashion and even gifts for your dog.
Having kicked off on Thursday, December 15, the market will be open for four days until Sunday, December 18 from 12pm and is free to attend, with no pre-booking required. The small tented area includes a range of great last minute gift ideas.
Among the vendors is Doggie Bakes, a luxury dog treat brand selling bags of dog biscuits as well as wonderful pet-friendly Christmas gifts such as 'pupcakes'. There is also stalls selling beautiful hand-crafted frames, Christmas ornaments and decorations sold by friendly faces.

While there is pretty much everything you would expect at a typical Christmas market such as decorative items and seductive smells, there are also things like vintage sports jerseys, gym gear and accessories such as bucket hats and bum-bags.
To add to the festive spirit in the lead-up to Christmas, carollers provide the tunes for when you browse. Turning around the corner to head towards the Liffey, you'll come across a vintage carousel for the little ones to enjoy.
As well as the highly-sought after Christmas market at Dublin Castle, there are a number of markets taking place between now and Christmas Day. This Sunday, the last Christmas Dandelion Market is taking place at The Well at Dublin's St Stephen's Green.
Also taking place this Sunday is Quirk Market at Outhouse, Dublin's dedicated LGBTQ+ space. Expect great finds from queer sellers and creators and their friends.
