Speech at a ‘Family Day’ Garden Party 2017

The third Garden Party hosted by President and Sabina this summer was a "Family Day".

People from all over Ireland were invited as guests of honour at this event, held to pay tribute to the love, friendship and solidarity that binds us together as people and as a nation.

The annual Garden Parties at Áras an Uachtaráin continue a tradition which began during Douglas Hyde’s presidency. President and Sabina Higgins are organising eight such events this summer, welcoming some 4,000 people into Áras an Uachtaráin.
