The Phil Lynott Statue is a bronze statue of Phil Lynott, the singer, bassist and main songwriter of Thin Lizzy, located on Harry Street in central Dublin, Ireland. The statue stands just off Grafton Street, outside Bruxelles, a rock pub closely associated with Dublin’s music nightlife.

The statue was created by Dublin sculptor Paul Daly and unveiled by Lynott’s mother, Philomena Lynott, on 19 August 2005, the day before what would have been his 56th birthday. It shows Lynott with his bass guitar, reflecting his role as one of Ireland’s most important rock musicians and the frontman of Thin Lizzy.

Thin Lizzy became internationally known for songs such as “The Boys Are Back in Town”, “Jailbreak”, “Whiskey in the Jar” and “Dancing in the Moonlight”, and remain one of Ireland’s most influential rock bands. The statue functions as both a memorial and a meeting point for Thin Lizzy fans, closely tied to Bruxelles and the surrounding rock pub circuit in central Dublin.
