The fines were issued at parties in Galway, Limerick, Cork and Kilkenny/Carlow.
Gardai are warning they now have the power to issue fines to people hosting or attending a house party.
Yesterday 16 people were hit with the penalty as they were caught meeting in homes throughout Limerick, Cork, Galway, and Kilkenny/Carlow.
The fines ranged from €150 for being at the gathering to €500 for the host.
Since January 11th, Gardai have been issuing fines to people caught breaching travel restrictions.
Over 2,400 €100 fines have been handed out to people who left their homes without a reasonable excuse.
Gardai are also warning that as attending a party is non-essential travel. For example, even if it is in your neighbour's house, you could be hit with the €100 non-essential travel fine as well as the €150 fine for attending the party.
