Dublin Event Guide 804: End of Free Events? – Dublin Learning City Festival, One City One Book

Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events)

End of Free Events?

Dublin Learning City Festival, One City One Book

Hi!!

It came as a HUGE shock yesterday when this news emerged:

Dublin City Council Announces End of Free Cultural Events in the City

Dublin’s days of free cultural events could be numbered, as Dublin City Council announces plans to introduce a new fee for all cultural events in the city.

From 01 April, all organisers of cultural events in Dublin will be required to pay a fee to the Council, which will go towards a lifetime supply of Pay&Display tickets for all current and future City Councillors. 

The move has been met with anger from local artists and community groups, who say that they also want to get free parking tickets or at least get a Leap Card with 20 Euro on it. 

However, Dublin City Council insists that the new fee is necessary because parking in Dublin City got so ridiculously expensive that City Councillors can’t afford it anymore. “We understand that this may be a difficult transition for some organisers and event goers, but we believe that it is a necessary step to secure that our City Councillors won’t get clamped when they buy their clothes and groceries in shops in Dublin City.” said a spokesperson.

Does that mean the “Dublin Event Guide (for free events)” will have to be renamed to “Dublin Event Guide (for unacceptably expensive events)”? And if we organise a free protest march against the ban of free events, will that cost an admission charge?

Happy 01 April! Don’t get caught out! ;-)

This coming week is Easter week, so there will be a good few less events than in “normal” weeks, but we have a pretty normal weekend before that, so don’t stay at home but explore Dublin and what it has to offer!

Some of you might be new to Ireland and might be surprised about this, but Good Friday is not a public holiday in Ireland

Donations in April: 
EUR 66

(By the end of the month, this number has to reach or exceed EUR 200 to guarantee the continuation of the Dublin Event Guide.)

If the Dublin Event Guide helps you to find out about free events in Dublin, please help with a donation.

The counter here shows the current donation status. By the end of the month EUR 200 will be subtracted to pay the bills. If more money has been donated, the rest will be carried forward. If donations have stopped below the EUR 200, the missing amount will be carried over.

Ohhh, there were NO donations last week. There was still enough money in kitty to pay for the bill and my drop in motivation if nobody donates anything is hopefully just temporary. With the new month, we need to make it to EUR 200 again. Please help! Your donation will keep the Dublin Event Guide alive and will motivate me to continue week after week.I appreciate you and your support!

The 800th anniversary donations were EUR 250 and for now, I keep that separate from the donations for the monthly bills. The reason for that is that I plan to use that money to fix and modernise the Dublin Event Guide website. It really needs it and I was postponing that for a long time of the cost that are not covered by the normal donations.

With the above counter you know at all times where we stand and when donating is needed. Donations keep the Dublin Event Guide alive and all donors will also get some additional bonuses.

Here are some more details about donations:
Any amount is appreciated, but if you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. – That’s just one Euro per month and you get FOUR Dublin Event Guides for that Euro! If your funds are limited, but you still want to help, you can buy a virtual coffee for just EUR 4. All donations will be used in full for the Dublin Event Guide.

To donate, use the Dublin Event Guide Donation Page here: gturl.eu/DEGdonate. It is really easy to use and uses Stripe’s trustworthy payment processing. You can even sign up for a yearly subscription on the donation page! Yearly subscriptions will give some important financial stability and reliability to the Dublin Event Guide and are therefore very much appreciated! (Look for the RED subscription buttons at the bottom of the Donation Page.)

In case the donation page doesn’t work for you, the old links are here: You can donate via www.paypal.me/DublinEventGuide or for Revolut users among you, just use @joergbrb or now also revolut.me/joergbrb
(If possible, please send your full name and e-mail address as a message with the payment via PayPal or Revolut so that I can tell you about bonuses for donors when available.)

To buy one or two or even three virtual coffees for the Dublin Event Guide, come to the “Buy Me a Coffee” page here www.buymeacoffee.com/DublinEventG

And there is one other way to help and it is even free: If you come to www.DublinEventGuide.com and check out some of the ads and click on the ones that you find interesting, that also helps with a few cent! ?

Thank you!!

+++ Dublin Learning City Festival (03-05 April) 
With more than 120 events, the three day long Dublin Learning City Festival is back. The complete programme can be found here and you can imagine that these are too many event to list them individually here in the Dublin Event Guide. But they are all free, so I definitely recommend this festival.
There are tours, workshops, talks, arts&crafts, exhibitions, music and more.
dublinlearningcity.ie/festival/

+++ LOW PRICED BOOKS (WITH FREE DELIVERY)
Book Depository is the place where you can buy low priced books, usually for better prices than on Amazon. And Book Depository always delivers for free. By buying books from Book Depository you will also help the Dublin Event Guide for no additional cost to you, so two good reasons in one. Use this link: shor.by/BookDepository
  .

+++ One Dublin One Book 
One Dublin One Book is a Dublin City Council initiative, led by Dublin City Libraries, that encourages everyone to read a chosen book connected with Dublin during April every year.
The chosen book this year is “The Coroner’s Daughter”, a crime fiction novel by Andrew Hughes.
There will be approximately 20 events throughout April in connection with the book and the festival and many of them are free. You find the events under “Events” on www.onedublinonebook.ie/

+++ Lenten Vespers with Choirs
In St. Mary’s Pro Cathedral Vespers (sung masses) will take place every Tuesday and Friday. On Tuesday at 17:30 it is with the St. Mary’s Pro-Cathedral Girls Choir and on Fridays at 17:30 with the Palestrina Choir.
www.facebook.com/procathgirls
www.facebook.com/PalestrinaChoirDublin

+++ The Big (Easter) Dig – School of Archaeology
Phoenix Park Visitor Centre is inviting to an archaeology event for kids over Easter. On Sunday 09 April and Monday 10 April 6-12 year olds can dig for fossils and other treasures in 40min long sessions. Details are on the poster here
www.facebook.com/thephoenixpark/photos/2146332582222898/ Booking (via e-mail) is required.

+++ TCD Talks
With a campus in the middle of the city, Trinity College talks and at times also events are in most cases open to the public. The talks can be found at www.tcd.ie/news_events/events/?day=03&month=04&year=2023&search=week and on the subsequent pages. SOME of the events are in the listings above, but only some.

+++ LEARN A NEW SKILL WITH ONLINE COURSES
Is there ever a wrong time for learning a new skill or enhancing what you are already interested in? Maybe it is a language or an instrument or some technical skills? Or something completely different? Nearly every subject is there! Check out Udemy via the link below, they have thousands of courses and there is good chance that what you are looking for is available. Nearly all the courses are REALLY affordable!
The lowest price most of the time is EUR 12.99. Sometimes it even goes down further to EUR 9.99 and when that happens (about once or twice a year), I will tell you. But even 12.99 is definitely a good price for what you get!

Check out the website at www.getthislink.com/Udemy22 And if you buy through that link, you also help the Dublin Event Guide! :-)

And this is it for another week! Have a great weekend and good new week.

Take care,

–Joerg (dublineventguide@gmail.com)
