Trump to visit President at Áras during visit next week

Officials are finalizing a brief visit with separate meetings and a security operation as Trump heads to his Doonbeg resort for the Irish Open.

  • US President Donald Trump will arrive in Dublin on Saturday, September 12, for a two-day visit to meet President Catherine Connolly and Taoiseach Micheal Martin at separate engagements in Phoenix Park.
  • Officials are finalizing logistics for the brief visit centered on the Amgen Irish Open, though a provisional plan to turn the sod at the US embassy in Ballsbridge is likely cancelled due to security challenges.
  • President Connolly, who previously called Trump a "bully," has agreed to a "meet and greet" despite past criticisms of his administration. Trump responded to her concerns, saying "Look, he's lucky I exist."
  • Significant security operations led by the Garda are underway to manage planned demonstrations in Dublin and Clare. Trump is also expected to visit US Ambassador Edward Walsh at the Deerfield Residence near Phoenix Park.
  • Following his Phoenix Park engagements, the President will travel to his Doonbeg golf course to watch the Amgen Irish Open and is expected to depart Ireland on Sunday evening, September 13, or early Monday morning.
