ISOGG Day Out - GGI2019 Dublin

The good news is that, once again, Gerard Corcoran (ISOGG Ireland Representative) has organized a fantastic agenda for our traditional ISOGG Day Out on the Sunday after the conference (i.e. Sunday Oct 20th). And this year we are featuring Epic Ireland and a Historic Walking Tour of Dublin.

The bad news is that all the places have been taken (GGI speakers and volunteers on the FTDNA stand always get first pick). And as we have a lot of international speakers this year, all the available places were snapped up.

However, if you wish to pay your own way, please feel free to join us. The agenda is below and you will need to book in advance if you want to be with or near the main group for lunch or dinner or the afternoon walk.

There may be some future changes to the agenda (due to unforeseen circumstances) but such changes are not currently anticipated.
