Zavedenie, located on Main Street in Swords, Co. Dublin, has carved out a niche for itself as one of North Dublin’s most vibrant nightlife venues. Established in the early 2010s, Zavedenie took over a spot previously occupied by a traditional pub and quickly distinguished itself by introducing a modern, cosmopolitan twist to the local nightlife scene.
With its sleek décor, eclectic lighting, and emphasis on a high-energy atmosphere, Zavedenie attracted a young, trendy crowd from both Swords and the greater Dublin area. Over the years, the venue has gained a reputation for offering not just top-quality music and themed club nights but also a safe and inclusive environment. Culturally, Zavedenie holds significance as one of the few venues in this part of Dublin to regularly host dance music events and emerging Irish artists, fostering a sense of community among music fans and budding performers alike.
The club has undergone several renovations to keep up with evolving trends, including a major refurbishment in 2017 that expanded its dance floor and upgraded sound and lighting systems. While Zavedenie has always remained at its Main Street location, these changes have allowed it to maintain a cutting-edge feel and continually attract new generations of club-goers. Notable artists who have performed at Zavedenie include international DJs such as Mark Knight and Nicky Romero, as well as Irish stars like John Gibbons, Dec Pierce, and the group Chasing Abbey.
The venue has also regularly featured local talent such as Marcus O’Laoire and rising Dublin acts including Erica-Cody and Soule, further cementing its role as a launching pad for homegrown music success.
The capacity of Zavedenie is 400.
