Guide to visit EPIC - The Irish Immigration Museum: what to see, tickets, prices & more

Ireland’s history has always been marked by immigration: the recent economic crisis, decades of religious oppression, the Great Famine of 1845 that pushed one-fourth of the population to travel the seas to America for a chance to survive… for years, the Irish were forced to leave their country, bringing with them their culture and heritage. For a reason, today over 25 million people around the world claim Irish ancestry!

Opened in 2016, EPIC The Irish Immigration Museum in Dublin offers an interactive journey through Irish culture in an incredible display of video and audio, bringing to life the history of the 10 million Irish men and women who left their country in the last centuries in search for a better life.
