Things To Do In Dublin (15-06-15 – 21-06-15)

By No More Workhorse on June 14, 2015 • ( Leave a comment )

It’s another busy one, so without further ado…

The IFI Open Day takes place this week, on June 20th to be exact! There’s a great line up of movies, so well worth heading along. The big event in the world of theatre is the Shadow of a Gunman opening in the Abbey.

Possibly the coolest festival of them all takes place in the form of Body & Soul. There’s also Sea Sessions, Mogwai, the Go! Team, Nil Farhm and lots more to boot. It’s actually pretty kicking this week!

Inspirefest takes place in Merrion Square and the Bord Gais Theatre on the 18th and 19th of June. The Dublin Garden Festival also takes place this weekend.
