Dublin’s Surprising Stories
€1.7 million worth of enhancement work was completed on 10 Dublin visitor attractions. This funding created new immersive experiences that bring to life stories that have shaped Ireland’s history and culture.
The Dublin Surprising Stories Scheme focused on bringing the story of Dublin to life using interactive technology, audio visual and improved foreign language provision. These enhancements have made the 10 attractions more accessible to international visitors as Dublin looks to compete as a leading global visitor destination once again.
