EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum Events
Winner Europe’s leading Tourist Attraction 2019 & 2020 & 2021
“EPIC has been voted Europe’s Leading Tourist Attraction at the prestigious World Travel Awards, beating Buckingham Palace, the Roman Colosseum and the Eiffel Tower for the 3rd year in a row.”
EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum presents a New Exhibition – 17th April until 22nd April 2025
Similar to their tours, it’s an adventure tour where the visitors have to assist Sherlock in finding storybook characters from within books featured in the museum (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Ulysses, Gulliver’s Travels to name a few) who have escaped their stories. It’s an hour-long tour, and we’re hosting 5 daily tours across these dates, all for the cost of the normal EPIC ticket.
Step into a thrilling interactive adventure this Easter as EPIC transforms into the scene of a literary mystery like no other! Join Sherlock Holmes in a race against time to restore order at the museum, where magical book portals have released beloved characters into the real world.
From ghostly echoes to snowy enchantments, it’s up to you and your family to help Holmes track clues, solve riddles, and return the escapees to their rightful stories before fiction and reality become forever entwined – the perfect family excursion over the Easter break.
