The Audi Dublin International Film Festival is in full swing and runs until 28th of Feb, with a huge amount of events on around the city.
There’s a massive amount of New Theatre in the Smock Alley – Scene and Heard Festival. A couple of other new productions include Whack!! and Wild Sky. Gigs around the city, we’d recommend Baio, Shearwater and the Gloaming, among others.
The Nick Miller in IMMA also comes highly recommended.
