New Video Offers Rare Glimpse into the Bustling Operations of Dublin Port

7 June 2025

A new video released today provides an unprecedented look at the fast-paced environment of Dublin Port, Ireland busiest passenger and freight port. In 120 seconds, the “The Busy Port” video captures the scale, complexity, and precision of daily operations that keep Ireland’s economy moving.

The video takes viewers behind the scenes to witness the orchestration of cargo handling, vessel traffic, logistics coordination, and the vital role of port workers. From towering container cranes to the seamless flow of goods, the footage highlights the critical infrastructure and teamwork that power the port’s 24/7 operations.

“Dublin Port is more than just a transport hub—it’s a living, breathing engine of commerce,” said Claire Percy, Head of External Affairs. “This video showcases the incredible effort and coordination that goes into managing 15,000 vessel movements and 35 million of tonnes of cargo each year.”

The video also emphasises the port’s strategic importance in Ireland’s supply chain, especially in the context of post-Brexit trade routes and evolving global logistics.
