The Dublin Book Festival is one of Ireland’s most successful and dynamic book festivals, running since June 2006 in the heart of Ireland’s capital with its rich literary history. ​This annual public festival is a celebration of Ireland’s writers and publishers, which showcases, supports and develops Irish books by programming and publicising their authors, editors and contributors – all in an entertaining, festive, friendly and accessible environment.
