Dublin Tall Ships Festival 2012

It’s nice having a small part in a massive project that turns out really well. Last weekend was the Dublin Tall Ships Festival which ran from Thursday to Sunday. It was a huge success with 1.15 million people turning up over the four days to the gigs, ship tours, funfair, Kings of Concrete, outdoor film screenings and family fun areas. A tremendous amount of organisation went into it by a lot of talented people and there was a brilliant vibe around the docklands.

I was involved in consulting on the web site initially and also spent some time on the Twitter and Facebook accounts. I was also lucky enough to be out on a boat taking photos for Sunday’s Parade of Sail. The ships looked magnificent as they sailed out into the bay and I was sad to see them go. You can view the full photo set on Flickr here. Let’s hope they visit again soon.
