There are a huge amount of events in the Dublin Writers Festival, and many of them are free! Yep, that’s for nada, zilch, diddly squat. Check through the web site to find a full list here.

Here are some of the best ones I’ve found…

Friday the 23rd of May at 9pm – The Liquor Rooms – Pat McCabe, Groom, Women’s Christmas, Barry McCormack, Dónal Lunny, and Young Hearts DJ’s (Peter, Daragh, and Siobhán)- that event is FREE, and the space is quite limited as well, so do get there early. More information can be found here.
