The five day visit will start in Northern Ireland before the US President moves on to Dublin
Mr Biden is expected to fly into Northern Ireland on April 11 ahead of a day of engagements in Belfast on April 12, the PA news agency is reporting.
As well as official engagements in Dublin, Mr Biden is expected to travel beyond the capital for visits related to his Irish ancestry. Distant relatives celebrated his election win in November 2020 back in Ireland and gathered again in January 2021 to mark his inauguration. Earlier this month, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar told the president that his trip to the island of Ireland would be “a visit like no other”.
