Bloomsday Readings and Songs

It’s time to don that boater hat and join Katherine Lynch and friends, for an evening of readings and songs from Ulysses as part of the Bloomsday Festival’s flagship event “Readings and Songs”.

We would like to extend our deepest thanks to our sponsors and partners, to all the venues and and to the readers and singers who gave us their time and their words who made this possible. This event is generously supported by the BAI, Dublin UNESCO City of Literature, Failte Ireland and The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.

A captioned version of Readings and Songs and the individual readings and songs will be available on playback.
