Dublin museum celebrating Irish women with special event for International Women's Day

The Irish Immigration Museum is celebrating Irish women who have left their mark on history for International Women's day.

EPIC will have special a tour in honour of the impact Irish women have had on the world. Visitors will learn how Irish women overcame prejudice, stigma, laws, famine and more to go on to make a positive impact in the world.

The tour will last an hour and will be led by one of EPIC’s female tour guides, who will share tales of trailblazers like Nellie Bly, pioneering investigative journalist, workers’ rights activist ‘Mother’ Mary Jones, Olympic gold medallist Sarah ‘Fanny’ Durack, WWII frontline hero Emma Duffin, ground-breaking scientist Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, and more.

The tour will be a few days ahead of International Women's Day, on March 5. The only time for the tour would be between 2pm and 3pm and tickets cost €8.50 for children and €17.50 for adults.

If you think your family or friends would be interested in knowing about the greatest women in Irish history, get those tickets quickly because there's limited availability. For more information visit EPIC's official website.
