Home of Guinness Experience starts at Guinness Storehouse
The operator lists the Home of Guinness Experience from Monday, 12 October 2026, through Thursday, 31 December 2026. It describes the programme as a guided journey through the building, with the Gravity Bar as its final stop.
The experience is offered in English and is restricted to visitors aged 18 and over. The operator’s programme listing for the new experience places it at Guinness Storehouse and identifies the custodian as Guinness Premium. The listing also gives the start and end dates for the 2026 run.
Seven floors connect the new tour with the brewery story
The building is at St James’s Gate in Dublin’s Liberties district. Tourism Ireland describes the attraction as a museum and visitor venue on the site of a working brewery that has operated for more than 250 years.
Arthur Guinness founded the brewery at St James’s Gate in 1759. The building used by the visitor attraction dates from 1904 and was originally a fermentation plant. Its seven-storey layout now surrounds a glass atrium shaped like a pint glass, while the Gravity Bar occupies the top of the building.
That history gives the October start a specific setting: the new guided visit does not take place in a detached exhibition venue. It follows the same vertical route through the former industrial building that presents Guinness history, brewing and advertising to visitors. Tourism Ireland’s attraction guide confirms the St James’s Gate location, the seven floors and the Gravity Bar viewpoint.
