Two new festivals hit Dublin this week, with the Audi Dublin Film Festival running from the 16th to the 26th, and the Scene and Heard festival of new theatre in Smock Alley. Both are worth checking out!
There’s also lots of live music this week with the Redneck Manifesto, Band of Horses, Josh Ritter, Sleigh Bells and lots more besides. You really can’t complain!
In the world of theatre, Arlington officially opens in the Abbey and Cora Leah and I in the New Theatre.
The IMMA Collection Freud Project is a must see! National Gallery of Ireland has the ‘Beyond Caravaggio‘ until 14th May. Book now or feel awful silly!
