Celtic Tweed’s tour experience allows visitors to delve into the illustrious heritage of its hometown of Balbriggan, County Dublin, giving a background to the craft of garment making and tailoring in Ireland. Tours take place at their flagship store and tailors' rooms in Balbriggan, Co. Dublin. From their home in Balbriggan they design, cut and make their collection with passion in every stich and button sewn.
Visitors get a guided tour of the working factory and studio and an insight into the long standing and rich textile heritage of Balbriggan. You are invited to discover this fine craft, learn about the town's illustrious craftsmen who held Queen Victoria's Royal Warrant. Try your hand at wool spinning, enjoy the fun dress up photo booth and a complimentary drink before browsing their beautifully tailored collection. They also have a store just off Dublin's Grafton Street, at 28 South Anne's Lane.
