A Weekend of Creativity, Innovation, and all things Maker in the Heart of Dublin City
Dublin Maker, the annual celebration of creativity, innovation, and making, is back with an extended event for 2024. This year, Dublin Maker will take place over two days, on August 31st and September 1st, 2024, at Richmond Barracks in Inchicore, Dublin 8.
Building on the enormous success of previous years, Dublin Maker 2024 promises an even more remarkable collection of exhibits, interactive workshops, and engaging project showcases. With a huge turnout last year, we are encouraging everyone to register for event tickets early to secure their spot. Tickets are FREE, and visitors can choose which day or days they would like to attend.
Dublin Maker brings together makers, inventors, artists, and technology enthusiasts from all walks of life to showcase their projects, exchange ideas, and inspire the community. This year, attendees can expect a carnival style, family-friendly atmosphere with a diverse mix of new and returning makers, ensuring fresh and exciting experiences for all.
The historic Richmond Barracks offers a unique backdrop for this celebration of creativity. Steeped in history, the barracks provide an inspiring setting where old meets new, and tradition intertwines with innovation. Conveniently located central to Dublin city, Richmond Barracks is easily accessible via public transport, making it simple for everyone to join the festivities.
Visitors can look forward to a wide variety of projects on display, including robotics, electronics, crafts, art installations, and scientific experiments. From cutting-edge technological advancements to traditional craftsmanship, Dublin Maker showcases the power of imagination and ingenuity in shaping the future.
Dublin Maker is not just a passive viewing experience. Visitors of all ages are encouraged to participate actively. Featured workshops will provide hands-on opportunities to learn new skills and engage with emerging technologies. Expert makers will be on hand to guide participants and share their knowledge, fostering a collaborative learning environment. The workshop timetable will be released closer to the event date, so stay tuned for updates.
“We are thrilled to expand Dublin Maker to two days this year while returning to Richmond Barracks,” said Jeffrey Roe from the Dublin Maker Team. “Dublin Maker has become the largest Maker event in Ireland with the aim of fostering innovation, inspiring creativity, and celebrating the maker spirit within our vibrant community.
