When & Where do the Young Leaders meet?

The Young Leaders annual calendar features three hallmark celebrations, including the St. Patrick’s Day Celebration, a New York Celtic Christmas Evening and the Summer In the City Celebration.

The Young Leaders also participate in the AIF's exclusive New York Dinner Gala, held each May at the Waldorf Astoria. Last year's event attracted New York's top business leaders and raised over $4.15 million.

The Young Leaders program offers unique gatherings appealing to Irish interests throughout the year . Past events include a cocktail party with Irish Taoiseach (Prime Minister) Bertie Ahern at the New York Stock Exchange; a U2 concert at Madison Square Garden; Broadway performances such as The Pirate Queen and Faith Healer (starring Ralph Fiennes); an NYU lecture hosted by Bono; exclusive AIF events attended by established AIF board members; and the 2006 Young Leaders Ireland Visit.
