About us

For over seventy years Skål International has been actively supported in Ireland. In 1948 our Dublin Club was the first post-World War II club founded. Currently we have four Clubs – Cork, Dublin, Galway, and Kerry. We are not immune to the challenges experienced in other European countries, but our future plans are tailored to attract new and interested colleagues into the membership of the only global tourism and hospitality organisation in the world.
