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!

What are they actually guarding and who are the strangers who lurk close by?

Dead Pioneers

The Workman's Club

Dead Pioneers emerged as a dynamic extension of vocalist Gregg Deal’s performance art, seamlessly blending music with critical cultural commentary. Rooted in the same themes of identity and resistance that define his visual work, the band’s sound acts as a powerful platform for addressing the complexities of Indigenous experience. Deal harnesses the raw energy of post-punk and alternative influences to challenge prevailing narratives, using lyrics that provoke thought and evoke emotion. Just as his performance art confronts the legacies of colonization and systemic marginalization, Dead Pi
