The aim of the event is to celebrate and explore all of the diverse music cultures that exist in Dublin, making it all accessible for everyone, no matter what your tastes are.

Each year, the event has an overarching theme and for 2018, it's collaboration and community. 

Highlights on the programme include The Ark's trad gigs for children, featuring MOXIE and the Dublin Choral Foundation present The Teddybear's Picnic
 

The Shaw Books and Record Market

If you're looking to kit out your book shelves or expand your record collection. Get yourself along to The Bernard Shaw on April 21st for The Shaw Books and Record Market where you can peruse collections, old and new, and find yourself some rare gems to take home.
