We are delighted to share some of the wonderful photobooth moments that captured the excitement, pride and joy of the occasion. 

This year's conferring marked several significant milestones for the Institute. Alongside graduates from programmes spanning animation, filmmaking, immersive media production, design, cyberpsychology, and business and digital technology, IADT celebrated the first graduating class of its pioneering Creative Pathways Programme, with ten students receiving their Level 6 certificates. The programme, designed for learners with intellectual disabilities, creates meaningful pathways into higher education, creative practice and future career opportunities. 

The ceremony also recognised exceptional contributions to Irish society and the creative industries through the awarding of Honorary Fellowships to academic and social activist Ailbhe Smyth, and Nora Twomey, Tomm Moore and Paul Young, founders of the internationally acclaimed Cartoon Saloon. Their achievements continue to inspire current and future generations of IADT graduates. 

To all our graduates: congratulations on your hard work, creativity, resilience and achievements. Welcome to the growing global community of IADT Alumni. We cannot wait to see where your next chapter takes you.
