Whether it’s a new arrival, a special birthday, or a cherished remembrance, life’s milestones deserve to be marked with care, good food, and the people who matter most.

At Crowne Plaza Dublin Blanchardstown, we welcome the opportunity to help you celebrate those moments in a relaxed and stylish setting. It is just minutes from your door.

Our Leisure Functions are available throughout the whole year, offering a choice of two thoughtfully crafted packages, perfect for gathering friends and family in comfort.

Whether you’re planning a christening, communion, birthday parties, retirement, corporate event or memorial, we provide the setting, service, and food to make the day feel special.

We know every gathering is different, so we’ve created two flexible menus to suit your style and budget. Both options include tea and coffee and private or semi-private use of our Forchetta Restaurant, depending on your numbers.

Simple and satisfying, this package includes:

  • Chef’s selection of sandwiches
  • Soup of the day
  • Tea & coffee

Want to add something sweet? A selection of mini desserts is available for just €5 per person.

For a more filling meal, this package includes:

  • A choice of two hot main dishes
  • Tea & coffee

As with Option 1, you can upgrade your menu with mini desserts for €5pp, this a popular addition for all ages.

Whether you’re planning a birthday celebration or an engagement party, our team can help you book a bedroom for the night.

Getting ready for the party doesn’t have to be at home!

We offer a range of room styles from our recently refurbished standard rooms all the way to the suites on the top floor.

We’re proud to host a wide variety of events that reflect the diverse community around Blanchardstown and Dublin 15. Many of our functions welcome families and groups, celebrating milestones like namkaran ceremonies, big birthdays, special occasions or anniversaries with warmth and hospitality.

For these gatherings, we understand the importance of offering non-alcoholic options, including a range of soft drinks and juices that can be arranged in advance. Change to cocktail bar to a mocktail bar and dance the night away.

Our dedicated team is happy to discuss any specific dietary preferences or cultural considerations to help you feel at home.

Whether you’re planning a large family lunch or something more intimate, we’ll tailor the day to suit your needs and make sure everyone feels included.

Private Dining at Forchetta Restaurant

Guests will enjoy private or semi-private use of Forchetta, our warm and contemporary restaurant on-site at Crowne Plaza.

Whether you’re booking for 25 or 100, we’ll match the space to your group for the right balance of atmosphere and privacy.

The cozy seating of the restaurant is the perfect companion to dinner with friends. It’s elegant decor makes every celebration unforgettable.

We’re proud of the service we offer, but our guests say it best. Anne recently hosted an intimate gathering with us and shared this kind message:

“I cannot praise the Forchetta staff highly enough. Jacob and his team gave us A1 top class service from the time we arrived until we finished. The food was beyond excellent and was highly commended by all of the guests… The restaurant was quiet and beautifully appointed with a restful ambience. I am so happy to have once again chosen Forchetta for our celebration of Alan’s life on his 2nd Anniversary.”

“Please pass on my sincere thanks and highest compliments to each member of staff who made the day so special. And thank you to Mathilde, as always, for your professional and friendly care.”

We love hearing how much these moments matter—and we’re honoured to play a part.
