Dublin Debaters: That Ireland Is The Land Of 1,000 Welcomes

Join us for our annual Debate competition against the Engineering Toastmasters as the Peoples' College attempt to win back their crown

It will be lively discussion, passionate speeches and spirited debate as two teams of three speakers go head-to-head on the intriguing motion: “That Ireland is the land of 1,000 welcomes.”
Expect bold arguments, sharp rebuttals and plenty of food for thought as our debaters explore the true meaning of Irish hospitality, our world-famous reputation for friendliness, and whether the celebrated céad míle fáilte still holds true in modern Ireland. Is Ireland really as welcoming as we like to think, or is there more to the story?

Before the main event, we’ll get the evening started with Table Topics, where participants are invited to think on their feet and speak off the cuff on a variety of unexpected subjects. It’s a great opportunity to challenge yourself, have some fun and build confidence in your public speaking skills, all in a relaxed and supportive environment.

At Dublin Debaters, we’re about much more than just debating. We’re a community of curious minds, enthusiastic communicators and people who love a good conversation. Whether you’re a seasoned speaker or someone who gets butterflies at the very thought of standing in front of an audience, you’ll find a friendly face and a warm welcome here.
So, whether you’re passionate about debating or eager to sharpen your speaking skills, or simply looking for an evening of lively conversation, good company and a little friendly rivalry, come along and join the debate
