The Gathering Dublin

The Gathering Dublin is set to bring everyone who loves Ireland back for a year of fantastic events.

From American Football to Baseball to Martial Arts, 2013 is the year where we all get together to "Meet To Compete" in South Dublin, located 30 minutes from one of Europe's most historic yet cosmopolitan cities. Dublin, voted one of the world's friendliest cities is busy preparing for a very exciting 2013.

With visitors arriving from all over the world, here in South Dublin we've decided to show off what we do best. We have top of the line sporting facilities like Tallaght Stadium and The National Basketball Arena, there's theatre spaces like Civic Theatre and RUA RED and we're completely connected by the bus and red line LUAS.

With nearly 40 events and the chance to trace your  Irish roots, The Gathering Dublin 2013 welcomes first-timers and ex-pats to Ireland for a chance to make memories and fondly visit old ones.

2013 is the year for everyone who loves being Irish!

So – if you are connected to Ireland in some way – either through genealogy, college attendance, alumni association or business connection, if you are or have played for a school, college or state and would like to have your team 'Meet to Compete' in The Gathering Dublin 2013, drop us a note at This email address is being protected from spambots.
