Some pubs haven't been open for 500 days.
Bars and restaurants across the country will be able to open their doors for indoor dining, from today.
Only those who have been fully vaccinated or have recovered from Covid-19, will be allowed to avail of indoor service.
A maximum of 6 adults will be allowed at one table and wearing face masks will be mandatory while not seated.
The Licensed Vintners Association says today is a big day for the industry.
“Being allowed to provide indoor service will come with a mixture of relief, hope and nervousness for many in the hospitality sector, especially those pubs in Dublin who have not been able to open their doors for the last 497 days.”https://t.co/BtI1JlW0j3

However, despite indoor dining reopening today, live performances at hospitality venues still aren't allowed to return.
It's been over 500 days since musicians and entertainers have been allowed to perform in pubs, hotels and restaurants.
