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

\n

Here is another “Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events)” for you and hopefully you will enjoy it.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

People tell me regularly that they love the Dublin Event Guide, that they love the content and that they love what it allows them to do.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

The goal is that with the information in this newsletter you will be able to experience and enjoy culture in our city in a completely different way because you have knowledge about all the free events that are there and that are often not well enough advertised.<\/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\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\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\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

The Dublin Event Guide is a matchmaker! It brings hard working event organisers who run free events together with you, the appreciating audience, who enjoy culture and events and who enjoy it even more if it is free.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

But there is also something that people do not love at all about the Dublin Event Guide: It reaches you MUCH too late on a Saturday and is then only fully usable for the Sunday and weekday events.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

I know this and 100% agree! My problem is that the Dublin Event Guide is a spare time\/hobby project. I work full time in other very busy jobs (more than one) and then use the time that is left over to gather the events and write this weekly newsletter now for nearly 18 years!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

I check well over 400 webpages every week, extract all the free events and gather them here, I use the essential information, turn it into a a readable but very short format and send the e-mail out to you as soon as I have it finished. I start working on it on a Friday evening as soon as I can and send it when done, working through the night, which means NO (planned) sleep on a Friday night for nearly 18 years. BUT often sleep grabs me against my will and that is a huge problem and is one of two or three reasons why the Dublin Event Guide is often so late. Another problem is that there are just tooooo many events.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

My biggest goal for the next few months is to find a way to send the Dublin Event Guide MUCH sooner, but tonight was NOT a good start. I had a busy week and could not keep my eyes open for hours on end. VERY frustrating!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

If you read this, another Event Guide got finished, but definitely not at a time I want it to go out. I will improve it! Thanks for your support.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

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

There are LOTS of events this week and the outdoor season has properly started. Try some of these events even if they are not your normal diet of cultural events, there is a lot of great things to be discovered. Don’t stay at home! ;-)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

If you have friends or family or colleagues that also enjoy cultural events in Dublin, let them know that they can sign up for the free weekly Dublin Event Guide newsletter at https:\/\/getthislink.com\/DEGSignup<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

The working title for my video series on YouTube is the “Better You” videos, they are all about 5-7 minute long about how to better your life. Check out this video series if you want to achieve more in life, but are talking yourself out of it. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@JoergSteegmueller<\/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\n
\n

Donations in May:
\nEUR 92<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\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

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

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

There were NO donations for the Dublin Event Guide last week. The week before, a whole bunch of Dublin Event Guide supporters were super helpful in clearing the April balance, but keep in mind that the (extremely low) cost of EUR 200 need to be covered month after month. So if you are able to help, please do so!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

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


\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

\n

+++ Bealtaine: Celebrating Creativity as we age<\/strong>
\nThe Bealtaine festival is a month long national celebration of the “arts and creativity as we age”. The festival is nearly 30 years old and initially it was described as “Celebrating Creativity in Older Age”. But what is “older age”? Is it pension age? Over 65? Or over 70 or maybe later? Nobody really knows.
\nAt some point, a few years ago, the website said from Age 55. But most 55 year olds wouldn’t see themselves as “older age”.
\nThe description was changed to “celebration of the arts and creativity as we age”, but does that help? We all age from birth, no? So the exact target group remains unclear, but the goal of the organisation behind the festival “Age & Opportunity” is to get people who normally are reluctant, to get engaged with culture. Who cares about the exact age!
\nGet involved and find the brochure at https:\/\/bealtaine.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Bealtaine-2025-Programme.pdf<\/a> and the events at https:\/\/bealtaine.ie\/events-2\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ Dublin City Council Culture Company<\/strong>
\nEvery week, the Dublin City Council Culture Company organises cultural events in venues in Dublin. They are events in addition to the normal events in museums, galleries and other venues. All events are free, but access is by registration only. And these events are POPULAR!! So when I get to checking them out on the Friday before they take place, the most interesting ones are usually already booked out. If you are interested, check them out here https:\/\/cultureclubdublin.ticketsolve.com\/ticketbooth\/shows <\/a>(This week you only see a few, because every month a new batch is uploaded not in a rolling way, but in a month by month way.)<\/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.
