KILDARE NATIONAL SPORTS ARENA, BLANCHARDSTOWN Now in it’s 4th year - the TY EXPO provides the perfect opportunity for TY students to Discover, Connect and Be Inspired for their year. The event is the only one of its kind and students and teachers from all over Ireland attend. In 2017 the TY Expo hosted over 120 exhibitions, each exhibit showcased a different and unique TY opportunity. In addition to exhibits there were demonstrations and presentations, each focused on sharing information, experiences and skills. Teachers find the event particularly useful, not only in preparing their students for the year but also to acquaint, or re-acquaint, themselves with all of the people and organisations involved in TY. TY EXPO 2018 will be un-missable. Don’t take our word for it, see what teachers had to say about TY Expo 2017. “First Visit not last. Very happy we brought our TY’s”! “Brilliant”! “Well organised event”! “Loved the variety.the energy and all the information”! “Exhibitors engaging and helpful”! “Our TY students are buzzing with ideas! Thank you”! “So much information”“Great day out for our TY’s” TY EXPO ARENA Organisers are moving the TY EXPO 2018 to it’s new home in Blanchardstown in September 2018. The move comes after much planning and analysis and is a major step in the development of this annual event. ! “We were always adamant that the event should remain outside Dublin” says Amanda Landzaad from TYI. “We felt that, symbolically, it should not be ‘yet-another Dublin event’ and rather develop as a National event.
