Open Mic in McCarthy's Bar

Following Doyle's event in The Dingle Skellig Hotel on the Friday night of the Festival, we will be hosting an open mic night in McCarthy's Bar, Upper Main Street.

Writers from all genres are welcome to take to the stage. Whether you want to share a novel excerpt, short story, poem, or essay, this is your moment to bring your words to life.

Event Added to the Dingle Lit Programme

Join Clodagh Finn and John Morgan as we meet the forgotten Irish men and women who joined the Resistance. 

In June 1940, the fall of France prompted General Charles de Gaulle to make an impassioned rallying call to his fellow citizens to fight back against the Germans. His famous radio speech, broadcast from the BBC in London, was later credited with igniting a spark of resistance which eventually grew into a vast underground network of civilians who took a stand against Nazi occupation in Europe.
