The Dublin Alliance Française is the third largest in Europe, after Paris and Brussels, and enrols over 5,000 students each year. 

The Alliance offers a very varied mix of courses. It is also an examination centre offering internationally recognised qualifications. The aim of the Alliance Française in Dublin is to promote French culture and it is also a place for intercultural exchanges between Irish culture and the cultures of the French-speaking world. The Alliance Française regularly organises exhibitions, concerts, conferences, screenings, book launches, festivals and more

The Alliance Française in Dublin offers the services of a French Médiathèque (Multimedia Library), the largest of its kind in Ireland, with novels, periodicals, CDs and DVDs. The Alliance Française in Dublin is also home to the Délégation Générale de l’Alliance Française en Irlande (Alliance Française Irish Network). The organisation is particularly active in Ireland, supported as it is by a network of committees based in Cork, Galway, Kilkenny, Limerick, Waterford and Wexford.
