Diversity
In Dublin, you will find a cross-section of the world.
Walking down Grafton Street or Temple Bar, you can see the diversity of Dublin in everyday life. From restaurants serving global cuisine, to music and dance from countless cultures, to fashion styles from around the world, the entire globe is represented in our people, places and spirit.
Dublin is increasing multicultural, with people from some 188 countries calling the city home. In 2006, approximately 15% of Dublin’s population were non-Irish citizens according to the National Census. Much of the city’s changing demographics can be attributed to Dublin’s rapid economic growth.
