Speech At A Garden Party To Celebrate Multiculturalism In Ireland

Each year, the President and Sabina Higgins host a series of Garden Parties, to celebrate the work of people and organisations active on the themes of citizenship and community that are central to the Presidency of Michael D. Higgins. 

The Garden Parties continue the tradition of past Presidents and this year the President and Sabina will welcome over 4,000 people from all over the island of Ireland to their residence in the Phoenix Park.

The first of this year’s Garden Parties focused on the theme of ‘Multi Culturalism’, and saw representatives of a wide variety of groups representing cultural and ethnic groups in Ireland invited to Áras an Uachtaráin.
