THE Southside’s Iveagh Gardens are preparing to welcome thousands of foodies through its gates for the culinary event of the year – the annual Taste of Dublin festival, sponsored by Electrolux.
Taking place from Thursday, June 16 to Sunday, June 19, this four-day event will celebrate the vibrant and diverse Dublin culinary scene, as well as some of the Irish chefs who are making waves abroad with the festival’s special ‘Homecoming’ theme this year.

For the junior foodies, Mymilkman.ie will host Family Afternoons at Taste of Dublin on Saturday and Sunday from 12pm-4pm each day.
For the first time at Taste of Dublin, The Natural Bakery will serve up a selection of freshly baked breads, treats and cakes to festival-goers across the four days.
