Fort Myers Naples, FL, August 27, 2026 — Former U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to visit Ireland for a two-day period from September 12 to September 13. During his stay, President Trump is scheduled to attend the Irish Open, an event taking place at his golf course located in Doonbeg, County Clare.

The anticipated visit has also prompted plans for significant public demonstrations across Ireland. Groups organized to oppose policies from his past administration have indicated their intention to protest in multiple locations. Key areas expected to see protests include Dublin and Shannon.

The prospect of these demonstrations has heightened security considerations for local officials. Reports indicate that preparations for managing the expected protests are being described as potentially challenging. Local officials have characterized the security arrangements required for the visit and the associated demonstrations as a potential “security nightmare.”
