EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum

EPIC Irish Emigration Museum is an interactive museum located in Docklands, Dublin. It is devoted to the history of the Irish diaspora and the immigration of Irish people to other countries. The exhibition consists of twenty galleries, each of them dealing with a different topic. They fall into four categories: Migration, Motivation, Influence, and Diaspora Today.

It is a private museum founded by Neville Isdell, former president and CEO of The Coca-Cola Company. The facility was officially opened by Isdell and former Irish President Mary Robinson in May 2016.

The museum is located in the basement of CHQ, a historic building known as Stack A, built in 1820 and used as a bonded warehouse for tobacco and wine. The building was restored at the beginning of the 21st century. The building also houses the Irish Family History Center, part of EPIC. Visitors can consult genealogists and access digital records to research their family ancestry and history.
