About Dublin
Dublin is the capital of Ireland and the country's main economic centre. Many international technology, pharmaceutical and financial companies run their European headquarters from the city, and visitors come for its Georgian streets, Trinity College, literary history, pubs and live music.
Dublin keeps Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+0) in winter and moves to Irish Standard Time (UTC+1) in summer. Its clocks always match those of London and Northern Ireland, so there is never a time difference when travelling across the Irish Sea or the border. Being on the same time as the UK and an hour behind most of continental Europe, Dublin is well placed for companies serving both European and North American customers.
