Each year, President and Sabina Higgins host a series of Garden Parties, to celebrate the work of people and organisations who have been active in projects and areas that are central to the Presidency of Michael D. Higgins.
The Garden Parties continue a tradition established by past Presidents, and over the course of 8 events, the President and Sabina will welcome over 4,000 people from all over the island of Ireland to Áras an Uachtaráin, its house and gardens.
The first garden party of 2017 is taking place on 17 June, and celebrates Bloomsday, one of the most significant days on Ireland’s literary calendar.
