Probably my favourite festival of the summer, Body&Soul has Lambchop, Bonobo and more. It sounds fairly fab! There’s also the Sea Sessions with Primal Scream, among others. The Hinterland Literature festival in Kells, has Sebastian Barry and others. The Pipeworks festival runs form the 20th – 25th June, and is all about organ music.
New Theatre includes Wonderland and To Hell in a Handbag. There’s the small matter of Radiohead in the 3Arena. There’s also Phil Collins, if you’re so inclined.
The RHA Annual Exhibition is in full flow and is always interesting. The IMMA Collection Freud Project is a must see! Vermeer and the masters of genre painting: Inspiration and rivalry has opened at the National Gallery and runs until Sept 17th.
