The Salesforce community is built on connection, shared learning, and collaboration – and nowhere is that spirit more alive than at Irish Dreamin’. Returning to Dublin on 19 March 2026, this annual community-led conference promises another day of immersive learning, expert insight, and networking opportunities for Salesforce professionals from Ireland, the UK, and beyond.
Now in its second year, Irish Dreamin’ has quickly become one of Europe’s most vibrant regional gatherings for those working across the Salesforce ecosystem — from admins, architects, and developers to consultants, partners and business leaders. The event is hosted at the iconic Royal Marine Hotel in Dún Laoghaire, offering a stunning coastal backdrop and a central space for community connection.
A Community-Powered Salesforce Event
What sets Irish Dreamin’ apart is its community-first ethos. Built by and for Salesforce Trailblazers, the conference is designed to bring practitioners together for deep technical content, real-world demos, and conversations that spark fresh thinking. Attendees can expect:
- Expert-led sessions covering data, AI, CRM, trust and transformation
- Role-based tracks tailored to administrators, developers, architects and leaders
- Hands-on demos and practical insights to apply back in the workplace
- Networking opportunities with peers and industry experts
- In-person energy and engagement that only a live event can deliver
Feedback from last year’s inaugural event highlighted the enthusiasm of the Salesforce community in Ireland and the appetite for accessible, high-quality learning closer to home. With more than 375 attendees, 34 sessions and 20 sponsors in 2025, Irish Dreamin’ proved that regional events can deliver impact on par with larger global conferences.
Bluewave’s Role in Making It Happen
Bluewave is proud to be returning as a sponsor of Irish Dreamin’ in 2026. Our team will be on the ground in Dublin, with several technical experts attending throughout the day – ready to meet the community, share insights, and learn from peers and customers. What makes this event especially meaningful for Bluewave is the personal connection we have to its creation. Barry Hughes and Jorgan Strathman – both valued members of the Bluewave team – are co-organisers of Irish Dreamin’. Their leadership in building this community-focused conference reflects not just professional expertise, but a deep commitment to nurturing a thriving ecosystem in Ireland and the wider region.
Last year’s event was a milestone moment for the Salesforce community in Ireland. As reflected in our recap, it brought together a diverse group of practitioners and showcased a wide range of insights, from AI and automation to governance and user adoption. The energy in the room was infectious – people eager to learn, ask questions, and build meaningful connections.
What to Expect in 2026
The 2026 edition of Irish Dreamin’ builds on that strong foundation with expanded content and continued focus on practical learning and community engagement. While the full agenda will be shared closer to the event, you can anticipate: deep-dive technical talks from local and international Salesforce experts, demos and practical showcases from sponsors and partners, opportunities to connect face-to-face with peers and leaders across the ecosystem, aa celebration of community and innovation at one of Ireland’s most welcoming venues – and much more. In addition to the conference sessions themselves, the event’s timing during St Patrick’s Week makes it a particularly festive and energised week for anyone travelling to Dublin.
