Join us for a guided walkthrough of the PASSAGE exhibition with artist Siobhán McDonald and curator Margarita Cappock, presented as part of Brigit: Dublin City Celebrating Women 2026. Siobhan McDonald’s multifaceted project explores Dublin's deep history as a mutable landscape shaped by water, cosmology, and human intervention. Through film, sound, painting, and sculpture, the installation investigates how the city’s shifting ground holds memory and resilience. PASSAGE traces the interdependence of human and more-than-human worlds, revealing the city as a living organism — breathing,

As part of Brigit: Dublin City Celebrating Women, the façade of the GPO will be transformed with specially commissioned visual projections celebrating the Celtic goddess Brigit. Across the evenings from Friday 31 January to Monday 2 February, the GPO will feature distinct projection works by award-winning creative duo Jill & Gill and Irish visual artist Bebhinn Eilish. Together, these contemporary artworks honour Brigit as a symbol of light, creativity, renewal and female power, illuminating one of Dublin’s most iconic buildings at the heart of the city. Presented as part of Brigi

Brigid is an inspiring figure in Irish folklore that symbolises creativity, wisdom, and healing, among other qualities. While we turn our focus to Brigid at one of Ireland’s quarter days, we can also take this time and all it represents to explore how the qualities we find in Brigid appear in the other women of Irish folklore. Join folklorist Glynnis Cowley in celebrating the diverse figures of women in Irish folklore and their stories.

VULVA STORIES will be an interactive exhibition celebrating a gorgeous community of VULVAS, each sharing their personal and unique stories through art in many beautiful forms. From art on the walls or hanging from the ceilings, visual art to music and spoken word, every medium becomes a thread in a tapestry of creativity and connection. What began in our first chapter has grown into something truly special, a safe & inspiring space where voices are heard, friendships and connections are made and creativity flows freely without judgment. This year, we’re adding something new and exc

Celebrating St Brigid’s Day, this poetry workshop will be led by poet Grace Wilentz. It is inspired by the Ribín Bríghud or Brat Bhride, laid outside before sunset on the eve of Brigid’s Feast Day and brought back in before sunrise, endowed by the dew with healing properties. In this workshop we will invoke goddesses from multiple traditions, explore the transformative power of words, and write original poems weighted with the intention of carrying support, guidance and sustenance into the world. For inspiration, we will look at relevant artworks from The Hugh Lane Gallery’s collection

Brigit x District opens the festival weekend with a rare headline performance from Gemma Dunleavy. Since the release of UP DE FLATS in 2020, Dunleavy has largely stepped away from releasing music, choosing instead to refine her sound behind the scenes. Her return for Brigit feels timely. Rooted in stories of working-class Dublin and shaped by her upbringing in Sheriff Street, her club-pop songs balance emotional clarity with sharp, understated production. Set within the intimate surroundings of the Presbyterian Church, this show offers a focused live moment to mark Brigit: Dublin City Ce
