January

Cyclone Anne on 3 January 2014
  • 3 January – During storm Anne The River Liffey in Dublin rose to its highest tide on record. It burst its banks near the Guinness Storehouse and Heuston Station. Some city quays were closed for an hour while pumping was performed. The East Link Bridge and Strand Road in Sandymount were also closed.[5]
  • 4 January – A very large Irish trade and diplomatic mission travelled to the Persian Gulf region. Over 80 firms sending 100 people on a five-day Enterprise Ireland mission to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Dubai and Abu Dhabi were led by the Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, accompanied by the Minister for Enterprise, Jobs and Innovation, Richard Bruton.[9][10]
  • 6 January – Nollaig na mBan was celebrated on the last day of Christmas.[11][12]
  • 6–7 January – The most prolonged and destructive Irish storm in almost two decades, Superstorm Christine, struck Ireland and did considerable damage, particularly in western and southern coastal parts of the country, on the 175th anniversary of the Night of the Big Wind. The initial assessment of the value of destruction was up to €300m.[13][14][15]
  • 24 January – Mount Carmel Hospital in Dublin applied suddenly to the High Court to go into liquidation when National Asset Management Agency financial support was withdrawn. Over 300 jobs were to be lost as a result.[16][17]
  • 25–29 January – A large fire broke out after 3 am on 25 January in the recycling plant at the Merrywell Industrial Estate in Ballymount, Dublin. Fifteen units of the Dublin Fire Brigade and 75 firefighters responded. The blaze was visible in Blessington, 23 kilometres away. Smoke reduced visibility and affected traffic, while residents of surrounding suburbs were advised to shut their doors and windows because of poisons released into the air. The occurrence of a second fire at the same time in a nearby carpet centre raised the question of arson being the cause.[18] The fire was finally extinguished after five days. Three investigations were conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency, by the Gardaí, and by the Fire Service.[19]
  • 30 January – An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha, the Irish Dancing Commission, announced a ban effective from 1 March on the use of make-up, false eyelashes, and fake tan on the faces of Irish dancers aged under 10. Artificial carriage aids used to enforce a rigid posture were also banned for safety reasons. Wigs and the use of fake tan on legs were not prohibited.[20]
  • 31 January–1 February – Storm Brigid blew winds reaching 120 km/h and caused flooding along the west coast including in Tralee, Limerick, and Galway. Power supplies to thousands of homes were severed, flights from Dublin Airport were cancelled, as were ferry sailings from Rosslare.[21]

June

edit
  • 2 June – June public holiday.[1][53]
  • 3 June – The counties of North Tipperary and South Tipperary were amalgamated into one County Tipperary.[54][55]
  • 7 June – British viewers were amazed, confused, and impressed when Sky Sports broadcast a hurling match for the first time.[56][57][58]
  • 13 June – The Public Health (Standardised Packaging of Tobacco) Bill 2014 was published, making Ireland the first European Union (EU) country to introduce plain cigarette packaging legislation. Stiff tobacco industry resistance to the law is expected and United States business and political lobbies have approached the Taoiseach to warn that its enactment would affect foreign investment in Ireland. Some EU countries are also expected to fight the legislation.[59]
  • 15 June – Father's Day.[1]

November

edit
  • 22 November
    • Revised Irish Water charges were announced. The cap on charges will now be €60 for a one-adult household and €160 for all other households.[72]
    • The five-metre cross on the summit of Ireland's highest mountain, Carrauntoohil, was found by climbers to have been cut down with an angle grinder. The steel cross, erected by 100 people in 1976, replaced an older wooden one erected during the 1950s. The cross was re-erected by a large party a week later, on the 29th, against the objections of environmentalists and members of Atheist Ireland. The anonymous fellers of the cross sent video of their action to TheJournal.ie news provider on 2 December indicating that the incident was a protest against the number of Irish primary schools being run by the Catholic Church.[73]
  • 25 November – Nóirín O'Sullivan was appointed as the 20th Commissioner of the Garda Síochána.[74]

edit
  • 2 December – 350,000 second-level students were out of school as teachers placed pickets in the row over reform of the Junior Cert.[75]

  • 10 December – Between 30,000 and 100,000 people marched in Dublin to protest against water charges being introduced.[78][79]
