    Dive Ireland International Expo is coming to Limerick March 7th & 8th 2020.

    Atlantic Diving Club and Limerick Sub Aqua Club are jointly hosting the annual Dive Show in the Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa in Limerick on March 7th and 8th 2020. The gathering of Ireland's diving community is a jam packed weekend filled with interesting speakers, talented photographers, and an impressive variety of exhibitors showcasing the latest in Sub Aqua technology. With over 1,000 people through the doors it's also Ireland’s largest trade show for underwater sport.

    Taking place at the event is
    · Extensive Trade show and exhibitions
    · International and Local Speakers on Marine based interest
    · A Photography Roadshow showcasing 99 images from Underwater Photographers
    · The Vincent O'Brien National Underwater Photography Competition
    · Search & Recovery Conference open to all SAR teams and members
    · The Irish Underwater Council Instructors, Diving and Training Officers Conference
    · The Irish Underwater Council Annual General Meeting

    Ivan Donoghue, a Wexford based diver, said he looks forward to attending the Dive Show weekend every year. "This year will be my twenty seventh one. It gives me a chance to meet old friends and to listen to a variety of speakers presenting on a range of diving subjects, including my passion… underwater photography. For a person interested in taking up diving or snorkelling, or someone looking to buy dive gear from the exhibition centre, then the dive show is the place to visit"

    If you are interested in presenting as a speaker or taking a trade stand, or just want more info on the event, please contact Mike Orth at diveireland@diving.ie or any club member.

    Yes, that's great but I was booking a single room and it's e206. 00 for one night!! I'm not from Limerick and hotel choice is expensive for divers staying over, probably sleep on the bus is my only choice

    Thanks for the feedback. I will get on to the hotel and see if there is a rate for the dive show. There was one negotiated but it could be all those rooms are gone.

    That rate is for a room for 3 people and we do expect to fill the hotel in fact many weeks before the date. PM me if you want me to find alternate accommodation, we are also working on that option.

    Thanks for reply, I spoke with our members who are looking for alternative accommodation and also feel cost of accommodation in choice of hotel even with divers discount is ridiculous. Thanks anyway for reply.

    Special Dive Show room prices.
    Single 115
    Double 130
    Triple 145
    Family 160

    Again you have to ask them for this rate (not the online one) and there is no code.

    There’s a travelodge about a mile away from the raddison charging between e88 to e68 .
    Might be worth a look

    Do you need tickets or anything for this or can you just show up?
