Fingal Poetry Festival

Fingal Poetry Festival

This event has ended

Various Locations, Friday 13th September - Sunday 15th September

The Fingal Poetry Festival team are busy planning for this September and the fifth outing as Ireland’s friendliest, most inclusive poetry festival. Along with new and exciting events still being plotted, they'll be bringing back some already firm favourites — the Poetry Walks by the sea or through the forest, the unique, ISL (Irish Sign Language) interpreted lunchtime readings in Joe May’s (the best pub in Ireland, in our opinion!) and the Family Fest for younger poetry lovers — all, as usual, in the company of music, poetry’s first cousin.

Keep checking in for all the news… listen to the podcasts (now in their 3rd season) … subscribe to the new newsletter… and don’t forget the series of Fingal Poetry Slams in Fingal libraries!
