Luggage storageEPIC The Irish Emigration Museum

The EPIC Irish Emigration Museum in Dublin sits in the restored CHQ building on the Docklands and opened in 2016. It traces centuries of Irish emigration — from famine-era departures to modern global migration — through immersive galleries, personal stories, digital archives and interactive exhibits that bring individual journeys to life.

Visitors come to connect with family history, explore the wider Irish diaspora and understand how migration shaped culture, business and the arts in Ireland and abroad. As an interactive, family-friendly museum in central Dublin with easy transport links, EPIC is both a practical stop for city visitors and a meaningful place to reflect on Ireland’s global influence.
