'Ireland's Highest Garden' Opens At Guinness Storehouse

The Guinness Storehouse has launched a "Height of Summer" experience that includes seven floors of botanic installations, live music performances, art exhibitions and a transformation of the Gravity Bar into "Ireland's Highest Garden".

Statement By Curator

Curator Mark Grehan stated, "Collaborating with the Guinness Storehouse has been fantastic, it's been great fun imagining the transformation of the space and bringing this to life. As someone who is fond of a Guinness, it has been great to collaborate with the brand, as it has a rich history and culture in the creation of green spaces within Dublin that I've enjoyed and watched evolve and grow over the years."

Statement By Guinness Archivist

Guinness Archivist Eibhlin Colgan stated, "The Guinness archive collects and preserves records, artefacts and artwork relating to Guinness since its foundation in 1759. Guinness has such a rich history with parks and outdoor spaces in Dublin and it was a pleasure to work with Grace Enemaku to deliver a map of Dublin's parks and outdoor spaces that have been influenced by Guinness throughout history. We hope that people will be able to enjoy this resource and continue their exploration of Guinness green spaces throughout the city after visiting us at the storehouse."

Statement By Managing Director At The Guinness Storehouse

Managing director at the Guinness Storehouse Catherine Toolan stated, "We are so excited to celebrate the 'Height of Summer' at the home of Guinness. Each floor will look spectacular as the Guinness Storehouse is transformed into the newest Guinness green space. We also have live entertainment and of course great pints of Guinness, so when looking for something to do this summer in Dublin, look no further than the Guinness Storehouse! We can't wait to welcome visitors and our local community in to see our summer showcase."
