Hi!!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

I hope your Christmas was good! We are now in the phase of the year, when I check the calendar 5 times a day because I can’t get the weekdays sorted. “Is it Tuesday or Friday today? And does Thursday follow Wednesday or is there another hitherto unknown weekday in between?” :-D Every year the same! ;-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Now it is full steam ahead to New Year’s eve and once work restarts on 02 Jan for me and hopefully on 06 Jan for the lucky ones among you, the confusion will ebb down again, but at the same time, the countdown to Christmas 2025 will (secretly!!) start.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

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

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

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

Did you realise that we actually live from Christmas to Christmas all our lives? Sure there is a period where you are not allowed to openly mention Christmas, but secretly on the first days of the new year, the waiting for the next Christmas period starts. Easter, the summer holidays and maybe Halloween are just stepping stones on the way. Do you agree or will you completely ban all thoughts about Christmas from your mind until next November?<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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

In the event world, this week is an in-between week. Many cultural venues are either closed or are open but don’t run events to give their people some time off too. So we will have New Year’s events and then there is another bit of a wait in early January until all will resume again. So the Dublin Event Guide will be a little “thinner”, but there is never a time when Dublin is boring and I will tell you about all I can find.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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

And one last thing: Just before Christmas I moved from one E-Mail service provider to a new provider. It seems the move went ok and hopefully you will receive this e-mail in your Inbox and not in your Spam\/Junk folder. A few people unsubscribed when reading the last mail that I sent from the old provider, but the mailing list had already been migrated to the new provider, so it is possible that your unsubscribe request fell between the two “stools”. If that was the case, please accept my apologies! Please unsubscribe once more and after that you will never hear from me again. (Sorry to see you go!!)<\/p>\n

\n

Donations in January:<\/strong>
\nEUR 117<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

\n(By the end of the month, this number has\u00a0to reach or exceed EUR 200 to guarantee the continuation of the Dublin Event Guide.)<\/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\n
\n

If the Dublin Event Guide helps you to find out about free events in Dublin, please help with a donation.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

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.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

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

Last week the wonderful people who helped with a donation were Laura, Philip, Audrey, Joan, Rory, Louise, Julie, David, Adam, Joe, Annie and Shengjie. Thank you so much! Your help is VERY much appreciated. Donations keep the Dublin Event Guide alive and it is truly a wonderful group of people who help keeping the Dublin Event Guide going. Join this exclusive group! Without donations to pay the bills I will not be able to continue.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

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.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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

Here are some more details about donations:
\nAny amount is appreciated, but if you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. – That\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

To donate, use the Dublin Event Guide Donation Page here: https:\/\/gturl.eu\/DEGdonate<\/a>. 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<\/span> subscription buttons at the bottom of the Donation Page.)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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

In case the donation page doesn’t work for you, the old links are here: You can donate via http:\/\/www.paypal.me\/DublinEventGuide<\/a> or for Revolut users among you, just use @joergbrb <\/strong>or now also https:\/\/revolut.me\/joergbrb<\/a>
\n(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.)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

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

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

And there is one other way to help and it is even free:\u00a0If you come to\u00a0http:\/\/www.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

+++ NYF Dublin – New Year’s Festival
\n<\/strong>This year’s New Year’s Festival in Dublin comes with a number of great gigs\/concerts in Dublin Castle and Meeting House Square and a Music Trail on Monday 30 Dec and on Wed 01 Jan. And there is – the first time again for a while – Fireworks in Dun Laoghaire and in Howth Harbour. (https:\/\/nyfdublin.ie\/news\/stage-times-for-nyf\/) Check out the schedule in this Dublin Event Guide. If you read it on Facebook, you need to go to https:\/\/wwww.DublinEventGuide.com<\/a>\u00a0Bringt the family, the day time gigs are all family-friendly and the Fireworks is too. Admission to all events listed in this Dublin Event Guide is as always free.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ The Moving Crib is still moving<\/strong>
\nThe Moving Crib is a crib that stretches across the whole basement of the St Martin Apostolate at Parnell Square and in which the figures move in a endearing way. It is particularly suited for kids, but also adults will get something out of it and it is not yet too late to go and visit the Moving Crib. The Moving Crib is open from 11:00-17:30 every day (with a small number of exceptions) from 28 Nov until 05 Jan. Admission is free. The address is St Martin Apostolate, 42 Parnell Square West, Dublin 1 https:\/\/www.stmartin.ie\/crib\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ Museum of Literature First Friday
\n<\/strong>MOLI, the Museum of Literature Ireland, is – unlike the National Museums – normally not a free admission venue. At EUR 14.50 for adult admission it is not a place where you would just pop in regularly, but visiting MOLI is a more planned and rarer occasion.
\nA (to me!) new initiative, is a great idea to make MOLI more accessible and to spread the word about it.
\nOn the MOLI First Fridays, admission is free from 18:00-21:00 and there will be access to the Exhibition and there will also be an author reading and a musical performance. Find out more about the event on Friday 03 Jan at https:\/\/moli.ie\/events\/first-fridays-january-2025<\/a> (Booking required)<\/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 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!
\nThe 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! –\u00a0Check out the website at https:\/\/www.getthislink.com\/Udemy22<\/a> And if you buy through that link, you also help the Dublin Event Guide! :-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ IKEA Crafting \/ Music \/ Cooking Workshops<\/strong>
\nIkea in Ballymun runs a variety of crafting, music and cooking workshops it is always worh checking out. The workshops are free and usually go for 45 minutes. They are always for children, but the age is often not fixed. There are specific Toddler and baby workshops at times as well. Check them out on https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/ie\/en\/stores\/events\/ikea-ballymun\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
