Irish Day

The Irish Day festival was launched in 2018 out of a great love of Ireland and a passion for Irish culture and all things Irish on the part of the staff and students at the Institute of English Studies. This yearly festival would not have continued to grow and flourish without the generous and ongoing support of the Embassy of Ireland, whose unwavering encouragement for all our initiatives promoting Ireland and Polish-Irish ties has encouraged us to invite high-profile guest speakers from around the world. The very fruitful cooperation between the University of Warsaw and the Irish Embassy has resulted not only in a stimulating academic exchange but has also contributed to a growing interest in Irish culture among Warsaw high school students, who both attend and participate in this event.
