COYBIG! If Euro fever hasn’t taken over, here’s a list of things to do around Dublin.

There is a huge amount of new theatre this week, with Boyz of Harcourt Street and The Trial at Smock Alley, Blooming Ulysses at Bewleys and Wrong Turn At Lungfish at the Viking, among others. There’s also the return of Riverdance, which will run until September! Seriously, that’s not a mistake.

Body & Soul is the big event in music, with the Gloaming, Santigold, St. Germain, Hudson Mohawke, Mercury Rev and many more. If you’re stuck in Dublin, we’d happily recommend De La Soul and The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

The Patrick Hennessy Exhibition at IMMA is worth checking out.
