EXPLORE THE MUSEUM

You won’t find leprechauns or pots of gold here, but you will discover that what it means to be Irish expands far beyond the borders of Ireland through the stories of Irish emigrants who became scientists, politicians, poets, artists and even outlaws all over the world. Discover Ireland from the outside in and find out why saying “I’m Irish” is one of the biggest conversation starters, no matter where you are.

DISCOVER WHAT TRULY MAKES US IRISH ON ST. PATRICK’S DAY

This St Patrick’s Day we’re inviting tourists and locals alike to dig a little bit deeper and discover what it truly means to be Irish and how that meaning is forever tied to the people who have left these shores.

At EPIC we’re celebrating the only way we know how – through our language, our literature, our art, our music, our dancing, and of course, our sense of humour.

Visitors can expect fun pop-ups running in the museum over the weekend and with our Pogues exhibition extended until 18th March, it’s all the more reason to pay us a visit.
