Hosts Program
This year, attendees will be greeted by our hosts, a select group who will lead a pub crawl around Dublin on the Tuesday before the Web Summit.
Explore the city with the locals the night before the Web Summit
Web Summit hosts are a selection of entrepreneurs, media, sports people, investors, politicians, musicians and more from around Ireland, coming together to welcome the thousands of attendees travelling to Dublin. Hosts will lead a giant pub crawl around Dublin on the Tuesday before the Summit, offering a local insight into the city's heritage, culture, and most importantly, where to get the best Guinness. You can apply to be a co-host below and all attendees will be given the opportunity to join a Pub Crawl in the week before the Web Summit. We'll also give any host a €100 voucher that they or a friend can use to purchase an additional ticket to the Web Summit.
