We are very much looking forward to welcoming you, your families, and your friends to Dublin for what promises to be a truly memorable weekend.

The University of Notre Dame has now committed to a major programme of events around the game in Dublin. Highlights include a terrific event in the O2 – a hybrid of a ND Pep Rally and a great Irish all-star concert. We are also hoping to establish a Guinness World record at this event for the most bodhrans played at the same time. On Saturday morning ND will take over Temple Bar for a massive Tailgate. There will also be the opportunity to take part in volunteering opportunities, in pilgrimages to Glendalough and Croagh Patrick, to attend Irish Studies Lectures, to participate in a huge open-air Mass in Dublin city centre, and in many other special events. We in the Keough Naughton Centre in Dublin will also have a very special programme reserved for our alums only. By the way there is also a football game on the Saturday!…
