Dublin will be transformed into a city-wide canvas this November, as Dublin Gallery Weekend 2025 floods streets, laneways, and cultural landmarks with contemporary art, experimental performance, and creative energy from Thursday, November 6th to Sunday, November 9th. Presented by Ireland’s Contemporary Art Gallery Association (CAGA), and produced by SoSimpatico, the weekend is set to be the country’s largest showcase of visual culture: a bold celebration of Ireland’s contemporary art scene. More than 40 galleries, cultural institutions, creative spaces and artist studios across the capital will unite to present brand new exhibitions featuring work from over 100 of Ireland’s most exciting contemporary artists. From painting to sculpture, installation to performance, digital art to street work, the programme spans the full spectrum of artistic practice. Audiences can expect provocative debuts from rising stars, stellar new work from established icons, favourite masters up close and personal, and personal encounters with legendary mavericks.
