TRADERS IN THE AREA SUPPORTING THE CULTURAL QUARTER COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Traders in the Area Supporting the Cultural Quarter Company Limited By Guarantee, trading as Love Temple Bar, is a Dublin-based community organisation that champions the city's vibrant Cultural Quarter. Since 2003 the company has provided a platform and a voice for the diverse businesses, cultural bodies and voluntary groups that give Temple Bar its distinctive "city within a city" character.

The organisation's work spans four core areas. It curates the Temple Bar Markets, showcasing fresh food, organic produce, sustainable craft, fashion, handmade jewellery, pottery, artwork and textile design from local makers. It also programmes a lively calendar of events and festivals - from the free-entry "Summer in Dublin" series to the flagship TradFest and St Patrick's Day celebrations - ensuring the district remains inclusive, entertaining and accessible. In addition, Love Temple Bar manages the area's upkeep, from window washing and graffiti removal to cobble-stone power-washing, and drives area promotion through dedicated marketing, TV features and music sessions in Dublin Airport.

Through these activities the company keeps Temple Bar clean, safe and buzzing with creativity, positioning it as Ireland's premier hub for tourism, commerce and culture.
