The Mansion House, Sunday 26th January

The National Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration takes place in Dublin every year on the Sunday nearest to the 27 of January, in the Round Room at the Mansion House. It is organised under the auspices of Holocaust Education Trust Ireland in association with The Department of Justice and Equality and Dublin City Council.

The Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration cherishes the memory of all who perished in the Holocaust. It recalls six million Jewish men, women and children and millions of others who were persecuted and murdered by the Nazis because of their ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, political affiliations or their religious beliefs. The ceremony includes readings, survivors’ recollections, candle-lighting and music. It is attended by people from all walks of life and is a moving and dignified event.

Queer Georgians: A Hidden History of Lovers, Lawbreakers and Homemakers

Wood Quay Venue

This lecture uncovers the queer lives hidden (and not so hidden) across Georgian Britain and Ireland, from devoted lovers and unconventional households to figures who quietly defied the rules of their age.
