HELP US BRING IRELAND TO PUBLIC TELEVISION 

MICHAEL GIVES THE SHOW FREE OF CHARGE TO PBS. EACH SEASON COSTS APPROXIMATELY USD$200,000.00 - MICHAEL MAKES NO MONEY FROM THE TV SHOW AND INDEED, HAS FUNDED THIS ALONG WITH OUR AMAZING UNDERWRITERS, TOURISM IRELAND & CIE TOURS. COSTS HAVE RISEN AND WHILE MICHAEL WILL CONTINUE TO FUND THE SHORTFALL, WE WOULD BE GRATEFUL IF YOU CAN HELP.

A donation to Ireland with Michael helps bring the stories, music, and landscapes of Ireland to life for millions of viewers across North America. Contributions directly support the real costs of filming on location throughout Ireland—camera crews, sound and drone operators, travel, editing, music recording, and the careful storytelling that turns each journey into a beautifully crafted PBS-quality episode. Donors are helping preserve and share Irish culture: the musicians in small pubs, the historians guarding ancient sites, the craftspeople keeping traditions alive, and the communities that welcome visitors from around the world. In short, a donor isn’t just funding a television show—they are helping document Ireland’s living culture and ensuring that these stories continue to inspire audiences, travelers, and the global Irish community for years to come.

All donors will be acknowledged directly by Michael and a link to donors will be placed into every episode of Ireland with Michael in Season 7 and beyond.
