Saint Patrick’s Cathedral has been at the heart of Dublin and Ireland’s history and culture

for over 800 years. Founded at the site of a sacred well where Saint Patrick is said to have

converted pagans to Christianity, Saint Patrick’s is the largest cathedral in Ireland. It has

been visited by some of Irish history’s most influential individuals from Cromwell, William

of Orange and King James I, to Queen Victoria and her husband Prince Albert. It is the final

resting place for one of Ireland’s most famous men, Jonathan Swift, author of Gulliver’s

travels and Dean of the Cathedral.

The Cathedral’s unique environment and architecture make it an ideal venue for seated

dinners, cocktail receptions, award ceremonies, and more. For small events, the recently

renovated Lady Chapel is provides an intimate setting, complete with updated lighting

and sound. The striking architecture of the nave with its soaring columns and vaulted

ceiling makes it a distinctive space for gala events. We offer private performances from the

Cathedral choir, an institution with a rich history including the first performance of Handel’s

Messiah. We also offer after-hours and behind-the-scenes tours.
