Hi all!<\/p>\n

Two and three and four and many more years ago, this weekend was the weekend of the City Spectacular (or formerly, the Street Performance World Championship). For years it was this amazing summer festival in Merrion Square with some of the best Street Performers from all over the world. There was the Space Cowboy from Australia, Mario Queen of the Circus from “all over there” ..as he put it.. and Pedro Tochas from Portugal and many others.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

Thousands of people were filling Merrion Square and laughed and clapped and cheered on and had a GREAT Saturday and Sunday. It was weekend I never missed since 2006…until lockdowns messed up with the world as we knew it.<\/p>\n

But I am hopeful! VERY hopeful! …that the City Spectacular will be back in 2022.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, like many pubs and shops, many festivals and events that we new and loved will bite the dust after normal life will return. That will be a pity and will leave a huge gap, but if it happens, it will give other people an opportunity to fill the void.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned previously, the Irish government is providing funding for a whole range of outdoor events between now and September and the Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events) will do its best to tell you about all of them. ;-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

So, stick with the Dublin Event Guide! ;-) Keep supporting this weekly publication by signing up to the weekly e-mail, by adding your feedback and clicking on one (or even all) Facebook links underneath the post and in return there will be heaps of free event listings\u00a0here for you week after week.<\/p>\n

You can sign up to the weekly Dublin Event Guide e-mail here:\u00a0https:\/\/www.DublinEventGuide.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n
\n

As you know, the Dublin Event Guide is a free service. You don’t have to pay a cent for receiving it, but – like all the free events that are happening every week – NOTHING is really completely free. The Dublin Event Guide has monthly cost of approx. EUR 200. It was originally EUR 250, but a super\u00a0generous donor offered to cover\u00a050 per month some month ago.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

For the remaining 200 I am trying to get help from you, the readers. I have a “Tip Jar” and your tip will help keeping the Dublin Event Guide alive.\u00a0Any amount is appreciated, but\u00a0If you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. –\u00a0That\u2019s just one Euro per month and you get FOUR Dublin Event Guides for that. If your funds are limited, but you still want to help, you can buy a virtual coffee. I won’t actually drink the coffee, but will use the money for the Dublin Event Guide.<\/p>\n

For donations, use the Dublin Event Guide Donation Page here: https:\/\/gturl.eu\/DEGdonate<\/a>.\u00a0It is really easy to use and uses\u00a0Stripe’s trustworthy payment processing. In case it doesn’t work for you, the\u00a0old\u00a0links are below and can also be used. You can even sign up for a yearly subscription on the donation page!\u00a0Yearly subscriptions will give\u00a0some important financial stability and reliability to the Dublin Event Guide and are therefore very much appreciated! (Look for the RED <\/span><\/strong>subscription\u00a0buttons at the bottom of the Donation Page.)<\/p>\n

You can donate here via www.paypal.me\/DublinEventGuide<\/a>\u00a0or for Revolut users among you, just use @joergbrb<\/strong><\/p>\n

To buy one or two or even three virtual coffees (or Hot Chocolates!) for the Dublin Event Guide, come to the “Buy Me a Coffee”\u00a0page here www.buymeacoffee.com\/DublinEventG<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n


\n\"\"<\/a><\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

Finally, there is also another way to help and it is even free:\u00a0If you come to\u00a0www.DublinEventGuide.com<\/a>\u00a0and check out some of the ads and click on the ones that you find interesting, that also helps with a few cent!\u00a0?<\/p>\n

+++ Online Bastille Day<\/strong>
\nWed 14 July \u2013 from 16:30
\nFrench Friday and LePetitJournal.com Dublin, in association with the French Embassy and the Alliance Francaise in Ireland, are putting together a free online Bastille Day for the whole family!

Find out all details here: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/512957603250701\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ Inside Out Summer Library Events<\/strong>
\nFrom Sat 10 July until Sat 14 August, a series of free summer libraries events for for children and families will take place online and outdoors. The outdoors events will be at the libraries in Ballyfermot, Ballymun, Coolock, Phibsboro and Walkinstown. The events are workshops and performances and in most cases require pre-booking. all detail are here: http:\/\/www.dublincitylibraries.ie\/<\/a> Many events will “sell” out quite quickly, so have a look at events even further in advance. In addition Dublin Libraries have that odd habit to close sales (even if events are not “sold” out yet) a few days before the event takes place, so you really have to plan with a bit of a longer time horizon.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ This Man is An Island \u2013 Audio Play – Civic Theatre Tallaght<\/strong>
\n01-31 July – all day
\nOnline Being an adult can be a real challenge sometimes. But as long as you have your friends all will be well. Or maybe not? “This man is an island” is a story of a friendship under pressure. The World is changing. Constantly changing. And it makes the friendship complicated. This Audio Play is performed at the Civic Theatre in Tallaght and admission is free or “Pay What You Can”. Find out more on book tickets via https:\/\/www.civictheatre.ie\/whats-on\/this-man-is-an-island\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ LEARN A NEW SKILL WITH ONLINE COURSES<\/strong>
\nIs 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 NLP or some Business related “soft skills”? 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!
\nThe lowest cost for courses this month will be around 12.99. Check out the website at https:\/\/shor.by\/GqCk<\/a> And if you buy through that link, you also help the Dublin Event Guide! :-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ Visit Dublin Castle for free<\/strong>
\nUntil the end of 2021, entry to Dublin Castle is free for all visitors. You will be able to visit the State Apartments on a self-guided tour. There are currently no guided tours and therefore the Medieval Undercroft and Chapel Royal are not accessible. Opening hours are Mon-Sun & Bank Holidays: 09:45-17:45 (last admission 17:15). Tickets can be booked at https:\/\/dublincastle.admit-one.eu\/?p=calendar&ev=SELFGUIDE<\/a> for free there will also a limited number of tickets available at the ticket desk.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ National Gallery tickets available here<\/strong>
\nThe National Gallery is usually free anyway, but in current times you will have to book tickets to get access and you have to enter the building on the Merrion Street side. Tickets are available here: https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.ie\/visit-us\/book-your-ticket<\/a> The National Gallery also is running events again and because the events have limited number of spaces, they can book out relatively fast, at least before I can write about the events, so check out the events 1-2 weeks in advance here https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.ie\/whats-on and then book tickets for them.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
