What's available

Netflix Ireland gives you access to a solid library with plenty of recognisable titles. You'll find popular originals like Stranger Things, Squid Game, The Crown, Bridgerton, and Wednesday. On the film side, you can stream The Irishman, Glass Onion, Extraction, and Don't Look Up. Licensed content includes series like Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and Suits. The library sits at roughly 5,000–5,500 titles, which is a reasonable selection but noticeably smaller than the largest available libraries.

What you're missing

Compared to the US Netflix library, Ireland is missing a meaningful chunk of content. You won't find The Office (US version), Parks and Recreation, or Schitt's Creek — all hugely popular and available in the US. Films like Interstellar, The Dark Knight, and Goodfellas are also absent from the Irish catalogue. Some anime titles available in Japan and the US, including certain Studio Ghibli films, are missing too. Licensing agreements are the main reason these gaps exist, and they're unlikely to change soon.

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you change your apparent location, which in turn unlocks a different regional Netflix library. Here's how to do it:

  • Sign up for a VPN service and install the app on your device.
  • Connect to a server in the country whose Netflix library you want — choose a US server for the largest catalogue.
  • Open Netflix as normal and browse the expanded content.

We recommend NordVPN as your first choice. It reliably bypasses Netflix geo-restrictions, offers fast streaming speeds, and has dedicated servers optimised for streaming.

Pricing

Netflix in Ireland is priced in euros. Current plans run approximately €4.99/month for the Standard with Ads tier, €10.99/month for the Standard plan, and €17.99/month for the Premium plan. Prices are subject to change, so check Netflix directly for the latest rates.

Our recommendation

If you're in Ireland and happy with mainstream Netflix originals, the local library will keep you entertained. But if you want access to titles like The Office, Interstellar, or the full US catalogue, connecting through NordVPN to a US server is the most straightforward solution — it takes under five minutes to set up and makes a real difference to what you can watch.
