One opens in D major with two sharps and 4/4; another opens in A major with three sharps and 2/4; a third opens in D major and 4/4. Check these details first, because they affect fingerings, bar lengths and how the reel sits on your instrument.

Use the title variants as a prompt, not proof

The titles include 'Last Night's Fun -- Reel', 'Traditional music - Last Night's Fun' and 'Last Night's Fun (Wexford Reel)'. The Wexford title may point to a particular setting, but the available material does not establish whether it is an alternative title or a separate version. Compare the notation if you need a specific version.

Treat the listed tempo as one indication

One score lists an opening tempo of 180 BPM. The other scores do not provide a tempo in the available details, so do not assume that all versions should be played at the same speed. Use the notation and your playing context to settle a workable pulse.

What the scores do not settle

The available scores do not establish a composer, origin story, original instrumentation or a single authoritative text for Last Night's Fun. They are individual settings labelled as traditional or as a reel; check the actual notation and any edition information before treating one setting as definitive.
