Design & Crafts Council Ireland (DCCI) is delighted to be back at Bord Bia Bloom.

Bord Bia Bloom is Ireland’s largest garden festival.

It takes place over five days during the June bank holiday weekend each year in Dublin’s Phoenix Park. In 2025, it will run from May 29th to June 2nd.

This year, DCCI welcomes 52 makers, all part of the Made Local campaign from across Ireland, to showcase their work. DCCI designers, makers and craftspeople are preparing to sell their work to over 100,000 visitors over the five days. Last year, 33% of visitors to Bord Bia’s Bloom festival went specifically to visit the DCCI Craft Village.

Made Local exhibitors are selected for the DCCI Irish Craft Village at Bloom to illustrate the wide variety of beautiful craft and design products being made all over Ireland. DCCI Made Local Irish Craft Village brings together some of Ireland’s most talented craftspeople to showcase their products at Bord Bia Bloom.

We’re proud to return to Bord Bia Bloom with our expanded DCCI Irish Craft Village, celebrating the incredible talent and creativity of makers from across Ireland. This event continues to be a powerful platform for our designers and craftspeople, offering real opportunities for commercial success and deeper engagement with the public.

Situated in the heart of Bloom, DCCI’s Irish Craft Village will host 52 Irish craft retail stands from textiles and printing to jewellery, woodturning and home décor. Visitors can expect unique gifting opportunities encouraging those to shop Made Local this summer. It will also feature a range of demonstrations from DCCI’s Guilds, Associations, Networks and Societies (GANS) over the five days. These demonstrations will be hosted by various associations including the Irish Artist Blacksmith Association and the Irish Woodturners Guild and will showcase Irish traditional techniques offering insight into the craftsmanship and cultural heritage behind these skills.

I have been a constant visitor to Bloom for the last few years and one of my goals has been to have a stand at it one day. So this is a dream come true for my business. I look forward to talking to visitors and discussing my inspiration and processes and sharing the event with the amazing talent in DCCI.
