Experience description:
No trip to Dublin would be complete without a visit to EPIC. Winner of Europe’s Leading Tourist Attraction for three consecutive years at the World Travel Awards, this interactive and innovative museum sheds the stereotypes of leprechauns and pots of gold and is the go-to place to discover exactly what it means to be Irish through the stories of those that emigrated.
The Irish diaspora have since had a huge impact around the world, going on to becoming globally recognised scientists, politicians, poets, artists, musicians and even outlaws. If you’re one of the 70 million people worldwide that claim Irish heritage and ancestry, this museum will feel like the start of a homecoming, connecting you and your story to so many others.
At EPIC, you don’t just read about Irish history, you get fully immersed by this breath-taking story in state-of-the-art interactive galleries, complete with touch screens, motion sensor quizzes and a feast of powerful audio and video to complete the experience.
EPIC is located at Dublin's Docklands and just a 10-minute walk from the city centre. With The Irish Family History Centre located on-site, The Jeanie Johnston Tall Ship a 2-minute walk away and plenty of cafés and restaurants on-site, you can spend an entire day at the one location.
