Best Time to Visit

The guide was updated:
Like the rest of Ireland, the region of Waterford is characterised by a mild climate, with rather stable temperatures throughout the year. The warmest months are between June and August, with the temperature peaking at around 66.9°F (19.4°C) in July. Considerable rainfall is always to be expected, but the driest month of the year is September. There are several festivals in and around Waterford all year long. The first major event of the year is the Viking Festival in March, followed by several summer programmes including the Festival of Travel Writing (Immrama), and the Harvest Festival in September. Winter festivals include the Waterford Film Festival around November and the Christmas Festival.

Passport / Visa

Ireland’s passport and visa requirements vary for different nationalities: if you are a UK citizen, you can simply use official photo identification, whereas if you are an EU citizen, you'll need a national identity card. Visitors from EU countries (including Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein), USA, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, don’t need a visa to visit the Republic or Northern Ireland. South African visitors can visit the Republic of Ireland visa-free, but they need a UK visa in order to enter Northern Ireland. If you're not sure whether or not to apply for a visa, we recommend that you contact the embassy or consulate in your country.
