May 2019
May 2019, it has come in fast, for me anyway. Ireland’s Summer has begun, well according to our own calendar anyway. What are your plans for the month of May? Apparently Arcade Fire were going to make a record, in the ‘Month of May’.
Dublin is looking lively this coming month, with something to tickle every taste from The Arts to pop culture. Ska to Star Wars! I’d love to find the time and money to experience all my top picks listed below!
And just to note – if you think I’ve missed highlighting a worthy event or festival in Dublin happening this May 2019 (or any other month), then please let me know. You can get in touch via the comment section below this article or via email.
