India Day in Ireland started in 2015 since it has grown into a largest Irish-Indian celebration in Ireland. India Day celebration plays an important role in bringing all Indian communities together and also plays a significant role in bringing the Irish and Indian community at one place to experience Indian Culture, Heritage, Music, Art & Craft, Meditation along with Indian & Continental Cuisine with exciting entertainment.

FAQs
No minimum age requirement but it is always advisable to carry your proof of identification.
IF TRAVELLING BY CAR OR BUS
Farmleigh is accessed through the Phoenix Park. When entering the park at Parkgate street ( main entrance near Heuston Station ) drive up along the main avenue. Go straight through the first two roundabouts, and take a left at the third roundabout (near Castleknock end of park). After taking a left at the third roundabout, take the first right (50 yards from roundabout). Farmleigh is at the end of this road.
If entering the Phoenix Park through the Castleknock gate, take a right at the first roundabout, and then take your first right again (after 50 yards). Farmleigh is at the end of this road.
If travelling via the M50, take the N3 exit (exit 6) and follow the lane for the city centre. Once you are clear of the exit, you will find yourself on the Navan road heading eastbound for the town. Drive down this road, under the flyover and turn right at the roundabout. After taking a right turn at the roundabout, drive for 50 yards until you see the Ashtown Gate of the Phoenix Park in front of you. The road naturally veers to the right, but you want to slow down and drive straight off the main road, through the gates. Use caution here, as cars can converge from 4 directions!
