What is Epic Ireland?
EPIC Ireland is a fabulous interactive experience which exhibits the worldwide journey of the Irish people (often referred to as The Irish Diaspora).
This ‘awe-inspiring, up-lifting and thought-provoking experience’ captures the journey of Irish men and women who left Ireland and became leading ‘influencers’ in communities throughout the world. Among the 20 interactive galleries you will meet well-known Irish emigrants including Grace Kelly and Henry McCarty (Billy The Kid) as well as many more important but not so well known emigrants. You get a feel for the reasons for emigration in the past and today.
