any pubs in dublin that have irish dancing during the day or early evening? thanks

Music is more common than dancing in pubs, but some ideas are listed here:

Worth ringing them up to check before you set off.

I also found:

http://www.mpbpub.com/ and

http://www.goireland.com/blog/article/traditional-music-and-dance-venues-in-dublin.html

but these are perhaps more 'organised' than you are looking for?

Are you looking for a particular day? The Arlington Hotel puts on Irish dancing every night but maybe too late for you. However on a Sunday they have an Irish music session in the afternoon that sometimes includes dancing. You could email them to check; http://www.arlington.ie/index.php

(by the way, the website's a bit misleading, the entertainment is actually free shows, you only pay if you're booking a meal for the evening shows and then you get a guarenteed seat in front of the stage)

knightsbridge,just of O' Connell st,has Irish music and on thursdays they have Riverdance on.
