EPIC - El Museo Irlandés de la Emigración fue diseñado por Event Communications, los multi-premiados diseñadores del Titanic Belfast. EPIC - El Museo Irlandés de la Emigración le cuenta la auténtica y épica historia de 10 millones de viajes y las raices de 70 millones de personas. Conal Harve, Managing Director de EPIC comenta: "La visión y objetivo de EPIC Irlanda es ser la primera parada para los visitantes de Irlanda, la primera pieza de orientación para cualquier viaje. Su propósito es explicar las éxpicas historias nunca antes contadas de una forma nueva, muy entretenida e informativa." Y continúa: "EPIC Irlanda da la oportunidad de celebrar y mejorar la connexión entre Irlanda y los que se fueron, pero se beneficiaron de ser irlandeses. También permitirá a los que no tienen ninguna conexión con Irlanda entender la historia del pueblo irlandés y de por qué la emigración sigue presente en la consciencia irlandesa de ayer y hoy." EPIC - El Museo Irlandés de la Emigración es una visita auto-guiada y se recomienda que la primera visita dure entre 1'5 y 2 horas. Premios Preseleccionado para el European Museum of the Year Award. Preseleccionado para el Children in Museums Award 2017 (el único museo irlandés seleccionada para este prestigioso galardón europeo).

Prensa "Aunque provocador... nunca había apreciado del todo la diáspora irlandesa hasta mi visita a esta exposición de alta tecnología... una experiencia educativa y entretenida." - Escritor de viajes Rick Steves "Una historia demasiado buena como para perdérsela" - National Geographic Traveller "Imperdible" - The Mirror

St Paul’s Cathedral, whose dome dominates London’s skyline, is England’s architectural masterpiece and place of national celebration. The cathedral was designed by the famed architect Sir Christopher Wren, after the Great Fire of London in 1666 destroyed its predecessor. The cathedral took 35 years to build from 1675 – 1710, spanning the lives of five monarchs and was the first cathedral to have been built and completed in its architect’s lifetime. St Paul’s Cathedral is where people and events of overwhelming national significance have been celebrated, mourned or commemorated. From state funerals for British heroes such as Sir Winston Churchill, to the Royal Wedding of Prince Charles to Lady Diana Spencer, and National Services of Thanksgiving to celebrate the Silver, Golden and Diamond Jubilee’s of Her Majesty the Queen. Touch-screen multimedia guides in nine languages are included for sightseers, offering up to 90 minutes of audio commentary, videos and imagery for a self guided tour. Tours led by cathedral guides are also offered, usually starting at 10.00, 11.00, 13.00 & 14.00 and last for 90 minutes; visitors should register to join a tour once inside the cathedral. Explore the cathedral floor then visit the Whispering Gallery to test the unique acoustics. Climb further to the Stone and Golden Galleries, which afford breathtaking panoramic views across the city. Descend to the crypt which houses tombs and memorials to famous Britons such as Admiral Lord Nelson, The Duke of Wellington and Wren himself.
