Houses of the Oireachtas Service
For Culture Night Dublin 2024, the Oireachtas Service invites visitors to join one of their guided tours of Leinster House, visit the Dáil and Seanad chambers and take the opportunity to look around a beautiful, historic building which has been recently restored.
Located in central Dublin, Leinster House is the seat of the two Houses of the Oireachtas (National Parliament), comprising Dáil Éireann (the House of Representatives) and Seanad Éireann (the Senate). It was designed by Richard Cassels, also known as Richard Castle, as the town home of James FitzGerald, the first Duke of Leinster.
Culture Night at Leinster House will have something for everyone, and we look forward to meeting families and visitors young and old to enjoy our special evening of entertainment. Tea, coffee and refreshments will be provided for guests. There will also be a dedicated Irish Language tour included in the programme for the evening.
