Emigration has always been a big part of Ireland’s story. For generations Irish people have left to set up new lives and leave their mark all over the world. So much so, there are about 70 million people with Irish roots scattered across the globe. In 2013 it’s a chance to invite friends & relatives home for a nationwide celebration of who we are and what we stand for.
The Gathering Ireland is a year-long celebration in 2013 of Ireland and all things Irish.
The Redhead Convention is just one of the thousands of Gatherings happening all over Ireland in 2013. Be part of it at www.ireland.com.
