    If you are in the heart of Temple Bar, head towards the River Liffey. Walk towards the southwest corner of the area, keeping an eye out for the iconic Ha'penny Bridge. Once you cross the bridge, continue straight until you reach the first major intersection. Turn left onto Wellington Quay and walk for about 5 minutes until you reach a small junction. Here, turn right onto Curved Street. The Irish Rock 'n' Roll Museum Experience will be located on your left at Curved St, D02 RD26. It’s approximately a 15-minute walk from the center of Temple Bar.

    While Temple Bar is quite compact and best explored on foot, if you're coming from further away, you can use Dublin's bus system. Head to the nearest bus stop (check for the nearest one in Temple Bar) and take a bus towards the city center. Look for routes that pass by the stop at 'O'Connell Bridge' or 'Fleet Street.' Once you are near the Temple Bar area, get off and walk towards Curved Street, which is a short distance away. The museum is a 5-minute walk from these bus stops.
