DUBLIN INTERNATIONAL PIANO COMPETITION COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Dublin International Piano Competition Company Limited By Guarantee is a not-for-profit organisation that stages one of Ireland's most prestigious classical music events. Based in Dublin, the competition brings together emerging pianists from around the world to perform in a series of public engagements, culminating in a live final that is broadcast on RTÉ Lyric FM. Winners receive significant prizes - for example, the 2025 first prize was sponsored by KPMG - and gain valuable exposure through concerts, recordings and media coverage.

Beyond the flagship competition, the company runs a Young Pianists Programme, commissions new works, and offers a range of volunteer and host opportunities that enrich Dublin's cultural calendar. As an approved body under Section 848A of the Taxes Consolidation Act, donations between €250 and €1 million are eligible for tax relief, allowing supporters to contribute to the development of the next generation of concert pianists. Through its programmes, broadcasts and community initiatives, the Dublin International Piano Competition nurtures talent, celebrates artistic excellence and strengthens Ireland's reputation as a centre for world-class music.
