Welcome to Peadar O'Donnell's and the Gweedore Bar, the home of live traditional and contemporary music in Derry. On our premises we have 3 different bars - Peadar O’Donnell's, the Gweedore Bar and Gweedore Upstairs. Please visit our main website to find out more about us.


Peadar's is known throughout the world and is a must-visit location for the many tourists that flock to Derry in ever increasing numbers. We are famous for, among other things, our live music which is largely organised but has regular impromptu sessions from either local musicians or visiting performers.

Whichever of our bars you would like to visit, you are guaranteed a warm welcome and a good time in them all!


Gweedore Upstairs
Above Peadar's and The Gweedore we have The Gweedore Upstairs, this part of the building is set out in more of a night club style and has discos on selected nights.

Gweedore Upstairs attracts a mixed age group and is ideal for someone looking to boogie the night away!
