Willkommen-Bienvenida-Bienvenue-Welcome to our December issue! Whether this is your first time visiting our shores or you are returning once again to trace the steps of your distant ancestors, here at Travel Ireland we hope in some small way to be able to gently guide you as you plan your stay here.
This month, we put a spotlight on some fantastic events happening in the Irish capital – including the Abbey Theatre’s Winter season, the National Museum’s new exhibition, Walking with Dinosaurs at the 3Arena and hypnotist Keith Barry’s magic new show.
Coming up to Christmas, we highlight festivities taking place around the country such as Yuletide Kilkenny, Co. Down’s Hillsborough Castle’s special seasonal events and Dublin’s New Year’s Festival. Also, Pat Liddy writes about the Five Lamps landmark and the magazine gives the run down on the best theatre to see and where to get the finest jewellery.
