Women Of Ireland Tour: Trailblazers & Pioneers

This event has ended

Meeting Point: Wolf Tone Sculpture,St Stephen's Green, Friday 30th January - Monday 2nd February

Experience Dublin through the stories of the extraordinary women who shaped it. Beginning in St Stephen’s Green—once a gathering point for Irish and Scottish suffragettes—you’ll stand on the very ground where women bravely challenged British forces and fought for Ireland’s future.

As we weave through Dublin’s cobblestone streets, we’ll uncover the often-untold histories of Irish women whose influence on our culture, politics, and economy has long been overlooked or written out of the record. For centuries, restrictive laws governed women’s work, marriage, and even motherhood, leaving little space for independence or equality. On this tour, you’ll learn how politics, religion, and legislation shaped an unjust world—and how remarkable women rose up to challenge it.

We’ll also explore the legacy of St Brigit, unravelling the stories and symbols behind one of Ireland’s most enduring figures. Along the way, you’ll encounter the devoted women of faith who founded schools, hospitals, and social movements that transformed their communities.

Join us in Dublin and discover a side of history you may never have heard before.
