President Biden is expected to meet distant relatives during his visit to Ireland as he explores a major part of his heritage.
President Joe Biden will visit Ireland next week to explore his Irish roots and commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement.
The president is famously outspoken about his Irish heritage and his jokes about his connection to the country have sometimes raised eyebrows, but he's likely to receive a warm welcome. The president will deliver a public address at St. Muredach's Cathedral in Ballina, County Mayo on the evening of April 14.

Biden's ancestral hometowns prepare warm Irish welcomeExcitement is building in Ballina, a small Irish town that was home to some of President Joe Biden's ancestors. Biden is scheduled to visit the town next week, part of a four-day trip to Ireland and neighboring Northern Ireland. The Irish Family History Centre says Biden “is among the most ‘Irish’ of all U.S. Presidents,” with 10 of his 16 great-great grandparents born on the Emerald Isle. All of them left for the U.S. during the Great Famine. He plans to visit two Irish spots connected to his roots. One is Ballina in western Ireland, where his great-great grandfather, Patrick Blewitt, was born. Distant cousin Joe Blewitt says it will be “like another St. Patrick’s Day” when the president arrives.
