CORK, EMD 2025 host city

Cork is widely known as a Maritime Haven, with its natural harbour being one of the largest in the world and the city motto on its coat of arms “Statio Bene Fide Carinis” meaning - “A Safe Harbour for Ships”.  The people, culture and industry have all been influenced by the city’s deep history and continued connection to its Maritime heritage.

Cork Harbour and city have been a maritime gateway to Ireland since records began, with the region steeped in history. From monastic settlement in the 6th century, to Viking trading post, to the now busy port city in existence today it has a long-established city of merchants, trade and enterprise.
