There’s a lot going on this week, as you would expect in the middle of summer.
Two big festivals this week, with Sea Sessions and Interlude. There’s also a fun small one in the Workman’s Club – The Wellington Weekender. We love C.W. Stoneking and he plays Whelan’s on Sunday! There’s also Sigur Ros at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham. It’s LGBT Pride this week with various events around the city. There’s another book festival this week also, with Hay Festival Kells from the 23rd to the 26th.
The Patrick Hennessy Exhibition at IMMA is worth checking out.
