I have wanted to visit EPIC but it was out of the way during previous visits. The first portion of the exhibit is sad addressing the hardships of the Irish people but the second half celebrates the culture and people. It took me almost two hours to complete and I could have used a little more time.

Wonderful moving interactive experience. Staff were very knowledgeable and helpful.

Insane! Come see it, you won't regret it
