The DIPC 2025 Quarter-Finals will take place on 9-11th May 2025 in the Royal Irish Academy of Music, Westland Row.  The Semi-Finals will also be held there on 13th and 14th May.  Tickets will be available at the door each day.  The DIPC 2025 Final will be held in the National Concert Hall on 16^th May.  Tickets can be booked at nch.ie.

The DIPC would like to thank all of our 2025 First Round Competitors for their wonderful application videos.  These are available for viewing on the DIPC YouTube Channel until March 18th.  The standard of First Round video submissions was exceptionally high, making the adjudicating process thoroughly enjoyable, yet a challenge to narrow the number of those to progress to the Quarter-Finals.

We wish the applicants who unfortunately did not progress to the Quarter-Finals all the best in their future endeavours, and encourage those who are eligible to re-apply in 2028.  We thank them for their time, dedication and beautiful music.
