Thanks to a nonstop flight between Indianapolis and Dublin, you can leave Indiana in the evening and wake up in the heart of Ireland just in time to experience the world’s most famous Irish celebration.

Food markets and festive celebrations
Illuminated landmarks across the city
The entire capital turns into a celebration of Irish culture, heritage, and community.
