Dublin Tech Week is returning from 22-29 May 2026, bringing a week-long celebration of technology, creativity, and community to locations across the city. Now in its second year, the festival is building on its strong foundations of its 2025 debut, which highlighted Dublin’s growing reputation as a global centre for innovation, talent and forward-thinking ideas.
Supported by Dublin City Council and the Dublin Regional Brand, the week will showcase the collaborative spirit that defines Dublin’s tech community, shine a light on the people, organisations, and initiatives shaping the city’s digital future, while allowing the public to engage with emerging technologies in accessible and meaningful ways.
Over the seven days, the programme will span conferences, exhibitions, workshops, networking events, open houses, and creative spaces. The week will offer someone for everyone, whether its exploring new ideas in AI, discovering the latest in digital arts, or taking part in hands on STEM activities.
