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

\n

If you weren’t able to make the most out of Friday (“I should have known to take a sick day!”) then you have another chance today (Saturday). The weather will be very good again, but don’t skip the day because the forecast is for a 5 degrees drop on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

These three days could be the complete summer for 2025, but we are hopeful and optimistic and can’t wait for more warm and sunny days.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Interestingly the warm days coincide with the longest day of the year. and I love when it stays bright until late. I like it less that from now the days are getting shorter again, but as the saying goes “what goes up must come down”!<\/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

If there are events that interest you this week, go and enjoy them. If there aren’t, then organise today a picnic with friends or family or go for a walk or just sit on the balcony\/in the garden\/in a park. Don’t think about it! Just grab the opportunity!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Donations in June:
\nEUR 111<\/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

\n

This week the wonderful people that donated to the Dublin Event Guide were Unnamed Apple Pay User, Shirley, Conor, Maryam, Giovanni and Frank. Thank you so much!!! I appreciate you and your donation!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Thanks for the donations and even some 18th Birthday presents for the Dublin Event Guide! (This month is the 18th birthday of the Dublin Event Guide.) We only have 9 days to find another EUR 89, but I trust that with your generosity we will get there. 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

+++ The Ballsbridge Beetle<\/strong>
\nThe first Volkswagen Beetle that was manufactured outside of Germany was assembled 75 years ago in Ballsbridge. It was a green Beetle Type 1 and that car is today in the Zeithaus Museum in Wolfsburg, Germany, where the Volkswagen headquarter is.
\nFor three days this Beetle will be shown in Dublin but only is the weather is absolutely perfect with 100% guarantee that there will be no rain.
\nThe location where the beetle will be shown is in the courtyard of Collins Barracks and originally it was meant to be on show on the first Saturday of June, July and August. But the weather wasn’t good enough on the last two Saturdays, so now the first display will happen this Saturday 21 June (10:00-17:00). https:\/\/www.museum.ie\/en-IE\/Museums\/Decorative-Arts-History\/Events\/2025\/Q2\/The-Ballsbridge-Beetle<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

+++ Pride Parade and Pride Village<\/strong>
\nNext Saturday on 28 June the Pride Parade celebrates the LBBT* community and culture. The parade starts at 12:00 in O’Connell Street and will then go along Eden Quay, Custom House Quay across the Liffey on Talbot Memorial Bridge, the along City Quay, Lombard Street, Westland Row to Merrion Square. https:\/\/dublinpride.ie\/parade\/<\/a>
\nAt Merrion Square the Pride Village is a full day festival event. https:\/\/dublinpride.ie\/pride-village\/<\/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.
