Its Summer in the City on Grand Canal Quay!

Check out the Irish Village Food Market located just outside The Design Tower, every Wednesday from 12 noon - 2.30pm,  every week of the year.


During the hot weather the Waterways Ireland Visitor Centre, opposite our studios, have opened their gates for customers to enjoy their picnics on the piers and dip their toes in the water. Here you can relax in the sun and enjoy the spectacular architectural delights of Grand Canal Quay, and also the occasional antics of local kids jumping into the water off nearby bridges!

Don't forget to pop up to our studios after lunch to see local arts, crafts and fine design, such as this watercolour painting of the view from The Design Tower, by artist Elizabeth O'Kane.

And watch this space for The Design Tower's next Group Exhibition later this year in The Waterways Ireland Visitor Centre, inspired by Grand Canal Quay.
