The City: Dublin

Welcome to Dublin, a lively capital city that’s as intimate as a village and as friendly as your local Irish pub. With its seamless blend of classic visitor sights, excellent social scene and the natural playgrounds of Dublin Bay and the Dublin Mountains framing it on all sides, this laidback city is an adventure in itself.

The Venue: CCD

The Convention Centre Dublin was developed to provide a world-class conference venue in the heart of Ireland’s capital city. Located just 15 minutes from the airport in Dublin’s Docklands, the finance and technology hub of the city, The CCD is ideally positioned to entice the international business tourism market.

To date, the CCD has won 42 industry awards, and continues to position Ireland on the world stage for international conferences, congresses and events. The CCD team strives to offer a truly world-class venue in every sense, from the quality of the facility, through to every aspect of their service. Their aim is to offer conference and event organisers, as well as conference delegates, an unrivalled event experience.
