Baggot street bar Searson's is hosting a Brexit leaving party and it looks like gas craic

The Brexit negotiations have been going on so long we'll be glad when it's all over.

However, one Dublin pub is determined to mark the official Brexit date next Friday 29 March with the ultimate send-off.

Baggot Street haunt Searson's is hosting a special leaving party for the UK as they wave goodbye to the EU.

Two Dublin pubs named in list of top 50 'dive bars' in all of Europe  

The well-known bar will be decked out with EU balloons, EU bunting, and large cutouts of Theresa, Boris and Nigel, while staff will be dressed in EU blue and yellow.

There'll also be a live gig from one-off EU supergroup the Backstop Boys and a DJ set with hits from UK greats like Bowie, Queen, Oasis, Elton, Spice Girls & Madness, Blur, The Bee Gees and Take That.

Guests can also sip on special cocktails created for the night including The ‘Theresa Maytini’, ‘Old Fashioned Tory’ and 'D.U.Pina Colada’.

And if the UK is granted an extension, guests will enjoy a free bar extension as well.

It all kicks off at 8pm and entry is free.
