Currently active across the major cities of the five continents, the Istituto Italiano di Cultura (IIC) network is the fundamental reference point for the Italian community abroad and the centre of the growing demand for Italian culture worldwide.

The network offers courses, operating libraries, and educational and editorial material that can help people discover and learn more about the Italian language and culture.

The Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Ireland was established in 1954 to foster and increase the existing cultural links between Ireland and Italy through joint initiatives in education, culture, and science. It is situated in an early nineteenth-century Georgian building in the centre of Dublin, in Fitzwilliam Square, architecturally one of the city’s most ‘historic’ and interesting squares, facing a beautiful private park.

The IIC Dublin hosts cultural events such as seminars, conferences, book presentations, exhibitions, concerts, and theatre and film screenings every week. The full programme of events can be found on iicdublino.esteri.it/iic_dublino/en/gli_eventi/

Italian language courses at the IIC resumed in September. Through their Italian classes, students can develop listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills in a structured and gradual manner with the help of highly qualified native speakers.
